‘NBA BEST’ Boston Celtics Can Now Stomp On Opponents Of All Calibers..

The Boston Celtics secured their position as the top team in the NBA this season, achieving their best record since 2007-08 with an impressive 60th win after dominating the Oklahoma City Thunder with a commanding 135-100 victory at TD Garden.

 

This victory not only solidified their status as the number one seed in the Eastern Conference but also guaranteed them home-court advantage throughout the playoffs, settling any debates about which team reigns supreme. With only six games left in the regular season, the Celtics have earned the right to boast.

 

Setting a new NBA record with their 16th win by 25 or more points, the Celtics have showcased their dominance on the court, surpassing even the legendary 1970-71 Milwaukee Bucks.

 

With such a commanding lead, Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla may opt for a load management strategy, resting key players and providing opportunities for bench players like Xavier Tillman, Jaden Springer, Neemias Queta, and rookie Jordan Walsh to shine.

 

Mazzulla emphasized the importance of not taking their success for granted, urging gratitude for their achievements and recognizing the hard work of the team.

 

Despite the absence of star player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Celtics demonstrated their ability to crush opponents of all levels, particularly evident in their dominant fourth-quarter performance against the Thunder.

 

This victory serves as validation for the Celtics, reinforcing their consistent performance throughout the season and their position as the undisputed top team in the league.

 

Kristaps Porzingis, who led the game with 27 points and 12 rebounds, expressed the team’s satisfaction with their accomplishments and emphasized their determination to finish the season strong and enter the playoffs with the right mindset.

 

Now, the Celtics eagerly await their first-round opponent as they embark on their quest for their long-awaited 18th championship banner.
