The Brooklyn Nets looked like they were about to escape Beantown with a victory, but unfortunately, Jayson Tatum's dagger sank right into the hearts of Nets fans, as the Boston Celtics escaped with a 125-124 victory in overtime.

Tatum finished the game with 40 points on 10-of-20 shooting, eight assists, five rebounds and one block. Paul George added 20 points on 8-of-16 shooting, seven rebounds and seven assists.

While the Nets couldn't come away with their first win of the season, there is plenty to be optimistic about from Brooklyn's side.

What are the takeaways? Let's take a look.
