Even so, Hart led the Knicks with 24 points in a loser effort.
“Eye’s Peachy,” Hart told reporters after the loss of 127-105, through the New York Post.
It was far from being the only intense incident of the night. Hart and Jaylen Brown tied in the third quarter and needed to be separated. The two entered a thrust contest after Brown was caught on a Hart screen.
“There were only two types that are extremely competitive,” Hart said. “He is a passionate and competitive player. We were tied in part time, he is trying to give his team a spark and impulse and the same with me.”

Hart and Brown seemed to let the coldest heads prevail after the game.
Brown had 26 points and 12 assists when he stepped in front of a great way to reach a game of binding the series. I needed to endure the worst part of the responsibility of recovering Boston in the series after Jayson Tatum’s devastating injury.
“We did what was necessary to do what we needed to do to take it to New York,” said the chief coach of the Celtics, Joe Mazzulla. “You can’t choose the test you have, you choose how you respond to them.”

Derrick White led Boston with 34 points, nailing seven triples.
“Losing JT is hard,” White said. “But we have many types that are highly competitive, and we didn’t want the season to end tonight.”
Game 6 is back in New York on Friday night.
