The Boston Celtics are well past the days of looking for moral victories. They just won a championship and then ripped off seven wins in eight games to start the season, before falling to the Golden State Warriors 118-112 on Wednesday.
Make no mistake, dropping a close game to a team that they’ve gone to battle with for years certainly stings. Yet, there was a silver lining for the Cs.
Neemias Queta impressed in his second start of the season. He tallied 14 points, eight rebounds, and a pair of blocks in 28 minutes for Boston while netting the team’s highest +/- at +13.
