The Boston Celtics dominated the Philadelphia 76ers 123–91 at TD Garden on April 19, delivering a lopsided playoff performance that fell well short of the 217.5-point Vegas total. Jaylen Brown led Boston with 26 points while Jayson Tatum added 25, anchoring a balanced offensive attack that shot 50 percent from the field and drained 16 three-pointers. The Celtics' defense was suffocating, holding Philadelphia to just 38.9 percent shooting and forcing 14 turnovers while posting a 119.8 offensive rating against a 88.2 defensive rating. Boston's depth showed throughout, with 31 assists on 123 points and a steady scoring distribution across four quarters—no single frame dipped below 28 points. Tyrese Maxey led Philadelphia with 21 points in a losing effort, with Paul George contributing 17, but the 76ers' 4-of-many three-point shooting and 20 assists against 14 turnovers underscored their offensive struggles. The Celtics' first quarter set the tone at 33 points, establishing early control they never relinquished. Boston's convincing victory in this playoff matchup signals their defensive intensity is ramping up at the right time.
