.The Boston Celtics, who are currently in first place in the NBA, will be back in action soon.
The Celtics have the best record in the Eastern Conference, with a 43-12 record. They are six games ahead of the second-place Cleveland Cavaliers. Boston won a championship during the famous 2007–08 season, which was the last time it had the best regular season record in the NBA.
Even more than normal, it’s either win or go home in Beantown. Luckily for the Celtics, their team has some of the best players in the NBA.
Lots of stars The C’s have been led by Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Kristaps Porzingis. Tatum and Brown were even named to the 2024 NBA All-Star team for their work.
Jrue Holiday and Derrick White, two guards who can score from deep and play swarming defence on the other end of the court, round out Boston’s strong starting five. Head coach Joe Mazzulla is in charge of all of them. He recently reached 100 wins, even though he is the youngest coach in the league at 35 years old.
Boston has been the best team for 55 games with all of these pieces. This is the Celtics’ most important stretch of the season after the All-Star break. Let’s give them some grades.
