Yes, the competition — New Orleans, Cleveland, Minnesota, New York, Chicago — has to be taken into account, but the Celtics are doing what good teams are supposed to; drop the hammer on bad teams.

Such was the case on Saturday when they battered the Bulls by 56 points, a record for the largest margin of victory in Celtics history and the largest margin of defeat in Bulls history. It was a surreal game. The fourth quarter turned into the McDonald’s All-American game for the Celtics, with Jaylen Brown and Terry Rozier trying various breakaway dunks against an overmatched team.

...


In examining the past five games of each NBA team entering Sunday, the Celtics have been by far the most dominant in the league.

Here are the categories in which they lead the league during that span: points per game (126.2), field goals made (47.2), field goal percentage (51.4), 3-pointers made (17.6), 3-pointers attempted (39), 3-point percentage (45.1), assists (30.6), and margin of victory (28.6).

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
Team is lethal. Beat a 100% healthy Pels team (with AD going off for 40) comfortably without Kyrie, Hayward, Horford, and Baynes. :mjlol:
This one was Brad testing their steel. We are playing winning ball, the best part is, I don’t know what you guys think, but I still don’t think these guys are close to figuring out yet. At this point, if Danny makes a move, ima trust it, if he doesn’t, and this squad unlocks their code, it’s cheat mode on the league. Besides GS, I don’t think there is a squad that lines up, and this squad, all cylinders firing, gives GS fits

But but but Robert Williams lost his wallet and missed a flight, trade him he lacks maturity and drive. :troll:

Our overreacting media and some fans can be very obnoxious

Guys are slowly accepting what role is needed from them to be a elite team. With Jaylen, Hayward, and Terry coming off the bench we have more balance.
