They’ve only lost one game in 25 days, and they’ll likely end November with a 13-2 record. Boston is clean, Boston plays fast and well, Boston is first in the East, it doesn’t matter who plays and who doesn’t.
The house stats of the green demo of the day are right here
And one more victory for the Celtics.
Not the one we’ll remember the most? Too bad, but in the way nothing moves.
It was just the Wizards, deprived of Kyle Kuzma in addition, and the meeting was therefore incredibly managed from its first to its last minute. More than a possible analysis of a match-up which was not really one, the idea is therefore this morning to point out this: the Celtics are a hell of a steamroller and their sixteenth win of the season is a good example of that.
130 points scored, logical for a team that sticks 120 every night and which is to date the best attack in the League. Tonight ? This attack lacked its best attacker, his favorite for the MVP trophy: Jayson Tatum. What do we do in these cases? We rely on the second side of the coin, Jaylen Brown, who obviously responds to play franchise players, he who is perhaps the most talented lieutenant in the entire League. 36 pawns last night, 13/23 in shooting and 8/8 in throws, what more can we say except clap-clap, except that JT can sleep peacefully when his legs creak.
Around JB? Al Horford was perfect, Marcus Smart too, and on the bench General Sam Hauser went there with his three shots from the parking lot while Malcolm Brogdon confirms his place on the podium of the race at 6MOY every day. We add a Derrick White to make the binder and a Luke Kornet to make… the vine? Come on, perfect recipe for repeated jerks, the Celtics have a record of 16-4 and are more than ever at the head of the East.
130-121 on the sheet but in the feeling we are more on +30. The difference between a team whose objective is… we don’t know, and another which has had a few storms this summer but which has no ambition other than to return to the NBA Finals next June.
