Boston’s Jayson Tatum on the Celtics recent offensive leap: ‘When you start to see them go down one through 15, everybody’s feeling good’

Hitting shots and winning games cures much, if not all.

Have the Boston Celtics finally turned the corner on both ends of the court with their second high-scoring game in a row and one of their most impressive performances of the season coming in the team’s 145 – 115 obliteration of a dinged-up Portland Trail Blazers squad?

The Celtics have until recently been focusing far more on getting their act together on the defensive end of the court, changing their early ill fortunes into something of a winning trend as a result. But the team’s offense has been beginning to come alive of late as well, and Saturday night’s success triggered plenty of questions to star forward Jayson Tatum about what’s changed for Boston.

“Continuing to move the ball,” answered Tatum, “especially with the bigs, (Jusuf) Nurkic and (Cody) Zeller.”
