The Celtics answered back Calls the Celtics’ victory against the Raptors “A Strange Game…
North of the border, the n CelticBostos defeated the Toronto Raptors 105-96 to complete their season sweeping of them. Together, Jrue Holiday and Derrick White scored 44 points and drained nine three-pointers.
Despite Jaylen Brown’s absence due to hyperextension in his right knee, Boston managed to recover control of the game and withstand the hosts’ 18-3 surge to begin the second half. With a game-high 14 rebounds, six assists, and 19 points in the paint, Jayson Tatum led the visitors to victory with a 30-9 reaction that included constant downhill attacking.
Joe Mazzulla, the head coach of the Boston Celtics, spoke on the atmosphere of Monday’s game after the team won.
According to Jared Weiss of The Athletic, Boston’s second-year bench manager said, “It was a weird game, first of all.” “A peculiar setting. One of those things where we have to struggle to make energy all the time.”
In the last 20 games, the Celtics have won 16 times. As of right now in the season, 31-9 is the first club reaching 30 victories. In terms of offensive and defensive efficiency, they are in the top three and have the highest net rating.
Tatum and Brown have performed like all-star players. White and Kristaps Porzingis continue to brighten the squad, while Holiday seems more at ease in the offence and is actively searching for his shot.
On Wednesday, the San Antonio Spurs and rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama will visit TD Garden as Boston resumes its hectic schedule. For their greatest home start to a campaign, the Celtics will want to move to 20-0 on their parquet this season and further establish their club record.
