What happened
Boston swept four games and climbed to 5-1, though the week nearly turned on a 125-124 escape against a winless Brooklyn team, the one night misery spiked as fans posted their relief in gif form. Everything after was cleaner: a second win over Chicago, then 108-97 at Orlando behind Jayson Tatum, whose trips to the line drew open affection. Paul George converts multiplied, one fan declared the Celtics "won the trade," and another made sure everyone knew the Heat are 0-4. Contentment still needs a rival losing.
What fans said
“It’s official: Celtics won the trade. Tatum is so much better than Fultz.”
