The Celtics chased a record and failed spectacularly. They're not alone.

REFRAME is a series in which we parse great photos of sports moments to find how those moments fit into historical context. In this episode, we examine the Celtics' opening-night quest to break the NBA three-point record ... that ended with them merely tying the record because they missed like a dozen three-pointers in a row.

Produced by Seth Rosenthal, Will Buikema, and Ryan Simmons
Directed by Jiazhen Zhang
