The Boston Celtics dominated the visiting New York Knicks , 115 - 87 , on Friday night at TD Garden . It was a physical game right from the start , which worked out in favor of Boston , as Carmelo Anthony was ejected from the game in the second quarter for arguing a foul call after a tussle between him and Amir Johnson . Isaiah Thomas was huge for Boston ( 4 - 4 ) as he led the way offensively with 29 points on 9 - of - 17 shooting , in only 28 minutes . Thomas went 3 - of - 5 from deep , while the Celtics were great from downtown overall , hitting 11 - of - 27 . They shot only 39 percent from the field overall but made up for it with vicious defense , forcing 25 turnovers from the Knicks . Kelly Olynyk was solid in his second game back , with 19 points on 6 - of - 11 shooting , seven rebounds and three assists , in 30 minutes . Avery Bradley and Marcus Smart both filled the stat sheet . Smart finished with 12 points , 10 assists , six rebounds and three steals , while Bradley notched 15 points , 10 rebounds , two assists and four steals . The Celtics move to 3 - 1 at home and will head out for a two - game road trip beginning in Indiana on Saturday . With this loss the Knicks ( 3 - 5 ) fall to 1 - 3 on the road and have not achieved consecutive wins once yet this season . They were coming off a good win in Brooklyn but failed to carry that momentum into this one , which may have had something to do with the fact that Carmelo Anthony was ejected mid - second quarter . Anthony scored 12 points in 12 minutes before losing his temper . Kristaps Porzingis was the high - point man with 14 points , along with six rebounds and two blocks , in 23 minutes . Derrick Rose added 11 points , six assists and four rebounds , while the only other player to tally double - digits for the Knicks was Justin Holiday , with 10 . The Knicks can only look ahead , where they have to bring their best effort to Toronto for their second game in as many nights Saturday . Carmelo Anthony scored 12 points in 12 minutes before getting ejected . Only three other players scored in double figures for the Knicks , including Derrick Rose with 11 , Kristaps Porzingis with 14 and Justin Hamilton with 10 off the bench . Both teams shot less than 39 percent from the field , while the Celtics managed to hit 40 percent from long range . The Knicks gave up 25 turnovers leading to 27 points for Boston . The teams were matched closely for points in the paint as well as rebounds . Isaiah Thomas filled it up with 29 points on 9 - of - 17 shooting . Marcus Smart neared a triple - double with 12 points , 10 assists , and six rebounds , along with three steals . Avery Bradley was similarly diverse with 15 points , 10 rebounds , four steals and two assists . Kelly Olynyk looked good in his second game back with 19 points , seven rebounds , three assists and one steal , in 30 minutes .
