Oshae Brissett helped spark a 20-0 first-half run and a 7-0 burst that set the Celtics up for their first Game 2 win this postseason.

The Boston Celtics won their first Game 2 this postseason, taking a 2-0 lead over the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Derrick White was splendid again with 23 points, six assists, and four rebounds, shooting 8-15 from the field, 4-8 from three. Jrue Holiday, also still red hot since the latter-half of the East Semifinals, had another double-double with 15 points and 10 assists on 6-7 from the field. Jayson Tatum had a mediocre first half, but got going on his fade-away midranges throughout the last 24 minutes and made plays towards the basket, while still seeming to struggle from distance.

“Just his presence, his energy, his athleticism,” Mazzulla said. “Just gave us, I think he had a dunk, got a steal, got us out in transition with a couple rebounds. So just, he plays with such a high level of intensity and energy. It's big for us.”
