Knicks Kick Off Season with a Rough Start Against the Champs

The New York Knicks' new team faced a challenging start in their first game of the season, going up against the Boston Celtics, who won the championship last year. The Celtics won with a final score of 132-109. The Knicks fell behind early, trailing by 21 points in the first quarter alone. Jayson Tatum, a key player from the Celtics, had an impressive game, scoring 37 points and making the Knicks' defense look weak. Mikal Bridges, one of the Knicks' new players, didn't have the best night but played better in the second half, although Tatum still outscored him. The Knicks' offense couldn't keep up with the Celtics', and their ability to grab rebounds wasn't very good. Before the game, the Celtics had a special ceremony to celebrate their championship ring, setting the stage for the season ahead.
