1. Domination
Boston has been in a very weird cycle recently where they either play horribly down to their competition or completely blowout their opponent out. The Celtics chose blowout in this game. It looked like a repeat of March 3rd, 2024. Boston blew out the Golden State Warriors by 40 points, winning 125-85.
