Celtics hold off Knicks' charge and beat NY 123-117 in rematch of the East semi-final

Jaylen Brown scored a season-high 42 points and sealed the game with a breakaway dunk in the final seconds as the Celtics beat the NY Knicks 123-117 at TD Garden last night.

Derrick White had 22 points and scored seven of those in the final four minutes. Jordan Walsh had six points and five rebounds in the four-quarter coming off the bench.

Mikal Bridges had 35 points, leading the Knicks. Karl-Anthony-Towns added 29 points.  

Boston has now won four of its last five games and, in the process, beaten four of the top six teams in the Eastern Conference.

Let's hope the Celtics can improve and hopefully get better as the season goes on.
