1. No Al Horford. No Malcolm Brogdon. Second night of a back-to-back with travel (albeit short), after a game of heavy minutes on Sunday. Sloppy first half. Shaky officiating throughout the opening two quarters.
This team just keeps winning games. The stars do what they do. The role players play their roles perfectly. And, when necessary, someone unexpected always steps up.
This was one of the best wins of the season, and arguably the best one, because Boston overcame all that was listed above. They ground the Toronto Raptors down until they had nothing left.
