Record-breaking Performance
Boston’s win over Brooklyn was historic, as it became only the third team in NBA history to secure multiple 50-point wins in a single season. This achievement puts the Celtics in esteemed company alongside Milwaukee in 1978-79 and Sacramento in 1992-93.
The Brooklyn Nets should have won a championship…
“If James Harden and Kyrie Irving do not get hurt they low-key sweep us when I was with the Bucks.”
“They beat us by 40!!, I had my car shipped back home”
NBA really got lucky the Trio of Kevin Durant/Harden/Kyrie didn’t work… pic.twitter.com/NorDIx1XT8
