Kyrie Irving’s 35 points lead streaking Celtics over Hawks

Kyrie Irving took charge in a fashion only he can. Dribbling and weaving through the lane and around the perimeter, Irving scored from all over and kept his teammates involved all night. "It's a beautiful game when it's played the right way," the four-time All-Star guard said. "It's not going to look good every possession, but you've got to be able to move onto the next play. I understand that better than most." Irving scored 35 points, Jayson Tatum added 21 and Boston held off the Hawks 110-107 in Atlanta on Monday night for its ninth straight victory.
