It certainly seemed like Raptors head coach Nick Nurse, who was essentially standing on the court, caused Celtics forward Jayson Tatum to make a costly turnover at the end of regulation in Game 6.

The Celtics are moving on from their Game 3 loss to the Raptors, ready to totally redeem themselves in Saturday night's Game 4.
