The Boston Celtics dominated the Miami Heat in Game 1 of the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs, but tempers flared in the final minutes when Caleb Martin overturned Tatum on a rebound attempt and sent him to the floor.
Brown then tackled Martin, resulting in a brief moment of tanesion and double technical fouls for the two players.
Tatum, for his part, immediately abandoned the fight after “the flight to the ground”, and then tried to calm down his teammate who intervened in his defense.
“Erik Spoelstra called a timeout with a 1:30 left down by 16, 30 seconds later that play happens… that looked shady to me.”
