Jayson Tatum hits buzzer-beater to give Celtics wild OT win over Nets

Jayson Tatum hit an overtime buzzer-beater to cap a wild, roller-coaster 125-124 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday at TD Garden. Tatum scored 40 points — including a career-high 18 free throws on 22 attempts — to rescue Boston after it coughed up a four-point lead in the final four seconds of regulation. After trailing the Nets for 25 consecutive minutes on the second night of a back-to-back, the Celtics had taken the lead late on a rare and-one dunk by Derrick White (total dunks last season: 14) with 34 seconds left in regulation. Then, disaster, it seemed. Center Neemias Queta made contact with Julius Randle’s wrist after a missed Tatum free throw, resulting in his sixth foul and disqualification. Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla inserted Mitchell Robinson to replace him. The Nets promptly fouled Robinson, and the notoriously poor free-throw shooter bricked both. Nets…

Patriots trade deadline targets: Tuli Tuipulotu and 3 more pass rushers to watch

Two weeks before the 2026 NFL trade deadline, the Patriots are considered among the biggest buyers, especially at pass rusher. Although rookie Gabe Jacas and Elijah Ponder have exceeded expectations, the defense still lacks consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks, and that won't change unless they make a move. Harold Landry III was supposed to be the guy for the defense, but an injury has had him on the Physically Unable to Perform list since the offseason. Because the veteran has no clear return date, the Patriots may enter trade talks to replace his production. Fortunately for them, several edge players are projected to be on the trade market before the deadline, four of whom should be on their radar. With a 0-6 record through 7 weeks, the Chargers are expected to be big-time sellers ahead of the trade deadline. That means they could be willing to move a player like Tuli…

Lamont-Fazio debate shows why solving the CT property tax crisis is so hard: Dan Haar

Two trains, of sorts, collided head-on Tuesday in Connecticut. One overflowed with policy: ways to solve the state's property tax crisis, as the the final report of the 100-person Citizens Assembly rolled though with 10 big ideas, most of them controversial. Highway tolls and a tax surcharge on incomes over $1 million – new taxes that could be used to offset, and lower, property taxes. A push to make local K-12 schools regional. A tightening of exemptions from local taxes for property owned by nonprofits. The other train carried a cargo of high-intensity politics as Gov. Ned Lamont, the Democrat seeking a third, four-year term and Republican state Sen. Ryan Fazio, the challenger, held their second and final debate before next week's Election Day. The debate included property taxes as a key issue, naturally. Through the dense smoke and flames from this collision, we see why the two-party…

Nickel-Per-Nip Program Brings In $25M For Connecticut Towns

Connecticut’s “Nickel-per-Nip Environmental Fee” program has brought in $25 million for local municipalities since its inception five years ago, with $2.56 million in its latest six-month distribution, officials said this week. Under this program, a 5-cent surcharge is added to the price of each miniature (50 mL) bottle of liquor, commonly referred to as “nips,” at the liquor store. Every city and town in Connecticut receives the 5 cents for each bottle sold within its borders. Wholesalers then disburse the funds to municipalities every six months, in April and October, based on the number of nips sold. The first payout was made to municipalities in April 2022 after an update to the state’s bottle bill. Based on the $25 million figure for total fees generated so far, at least 500 million nip bottles have been sold in Connecticut over the past five years. More than 51 million nips were…
