After a statement win in Game 1, the Celtics<\/a> return to the court on Tuesday night looking to turn a series-opening victory into a stranglehold on their first-round matchup with the 76ers<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s dominant performance served as a loud reminder of why Boston secured the second seed, with the offense operating at peak efficiency and a defense that stifled Philly\u2019s perimeter options from the jump. As the series shifts toward Game 2 at TD Garden, the pressure is squarely on the visitors to prove that their regular-season resilience can translate to the postseason stage.<\/p>\n

Jayson Tatum made a resounding return to the playoff stage in Game 1, logging 25 points and 11 rebounds to lead Boston; Jaylen Brown had 26 points to lead scoring in a 123-91 rout of a shorthanded 76ers squad playing without Joel Embiid.<\/p>\n

Here’s how to tune into the pivotal Game 2 as the Celtics look to take a 2-0 lead heading to Philadelphia.<\/p>\n
