Celtics 100, Bulls 80

Key Moment

The Chicago Bulls were bad Sunday afternoon. Really bad. Bad enough that the Boston Celtics controlled the entirety of the teams’ matchup from the opening tip, in blowout fashion.

Boston jumped out to a 13-0 lead to start the game as Chicago’s offense rolled far below mediocrity. The Celtics would go on to pull ahead by 16 during the first quarter, and by 29 during the game, en route to a 100-80 victory.

The cause of the blowout was Chicago’s putrid offense, which continued its struggles during the month of March. Chicago had failed to score more than 95 points during its first five games of the month, and it came nowhere near that number Sunday afternoon.
