The Boston Celtics showed what could happen on a night when nothing was falling for any of their players on the last game of their recent road trip, falling to a determined Chicago Bulls squad eager to stave off a deeper descent in the NBA standings.
But then the Celtics found their mojo again after seeing their league-best nine-game win streak snapped, drubbing the Dallas Mavericks 125-115 despite an epic showdown between Mavs star Luka Doncic and Celtics star Jayson Tatum tilting ever-so-slightly in favor of Doncic on the individual level. All in all, it was a scintillating contest that further cemented the Celtics’ status as a top team in the league this season.
Let’s take a look at what Celtics and NBA Twitter had to say about the win.
