Will Jayson Tatum respond in Game 3 of the Boston Celtics East Semis vs. Knicks?
Will star forward Jayson Tatum respond in Game 3 of the Boston Celtics 2025 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals second round series with the New York Knicks? The St. Louis native has been very inefficient in his scoring for the Celtics in the East Semis series vs. the Knicks in each of the two Atlantic Division Team's games, helping Boston lose a pair of 20-point leads in the process.
Questionable fadeaways and single action possessions led by Tatum have been a considerable part of what has gone wrong for Boston against New York. Will Tatum step up in the third installment of the series, or will the Celtics fall into the dreaded 0-3 series deficit at Madison Square Garden on Saturday (May 9) afternoon?
The hosts of the CLNS Media "The Big Three NBA" podcast, A. Sherrod Blakely, Gary Washburn, and Kwani Lunis took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk it over. Check it out below!

Could a familiar face be the Knicks next head coach? | The Big Number Yahoo Sports contributing NBA writer Tom Haberstroh and NBA writer Dan Devine discuss New York's search for its next leader after the dismissal of Tom Thibodeau and why former associate head coach Johnnie Bryant may be the favorite for the job. Hear the full conversation on 'The Big Number' and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Video Transcript Another team is trying to win it all next year, maybe. Advertisement The New York Knicks were not happy with Tom Thibodeaux's job presumably, uh, obviously, is that the fact that they just let him go on Tuesday, uh, Tom Thibodeau out as the New York Knicks head coach. I've written about it, you've written about it. Um, this is a really interesting story. The fact that it was so soon after the Eastern Conference, uh, Defeat against the Indiana Pacers, it lends me to believe that they have someone in mind, right? It lends me to believe that like, look, we have our guy that we really want to pursue here and we wanna get him before some other team does, but I wonder, Dan. Advertisement Of the candidates that we've thrown out there, whether it's Jay Wright or Michael Malone, or as I, I put in there as kind of a, could you imagine if they hired John Calipari uh out of the college ranks, Carl Anthony Towns is former coach very close with the uh with Leon. Rose and World Wide West. Johnny becomes a very interesting candidate here, Johnny Bryant, uh, Mark Stein also reporting that Jason Kidd and Eme Udoka also said to have interest drawing from the New York Knicks, but the Johnny Bride story, uh, I feel like. Do you fire Tom Thibodeaux and then hire his associate, his assistant coach, worried that maybe the Suns would get him first? Do you make that move to preempt uh Johnny Bryant getting hired by the Phoenix Suns? I don't know, but this is getting very interesting.
