1. That was one heck of a start to 2022 for the Boston Celtics. And maybe it helped serve as a turning of the page for this inconsistent group. 2021 was littered with bad losses, as Boston had been blown out, lost to bad teams and they had their share of blown leads.
This time, the Celtics did the coming back and got a win they needed to have.
As Jaylen Brown said postgame “We just needed to f*cking win.” And win they did. In a game where it felt like “Here we go again”, Boston flipped the script and refused to lose to the Orlando Magic.
