The Brooklyn Nets lost a heartbreaker on Sunday afternoon in Boston against the Celtics when Jayson Tatum hit a buzzer beater to win 115-114 and take a 1-0 series lead.

During the game, Kyrie Irving had been getting heckled by Boston fans all day (he used to play for the Celtics), and at one point he was caught on video giving the middle finger to fans.

Game 2 will be played on Wednesday evening once again in Massachusetts, and the following two games will be played at Barclays Center in New York.

Irving was fined $50,000 by the NBA for some of the incidents that took place during Sunday afternoon.
