It might be time to call the “We’re Back Department” because the Boston Celtics have won four straight games. It’s the first time since mid-November that they’ve done so and their most recent win over the first-place Cleveland Cavaliers makes them winners of eight of their last eleven.
This recent surge has also sadly convinced me to re-establish my expectations for the Cs.
They’d just spent the last two months making me a skeptic. I was beaten down, broken, and unwilling to draw any rash conclusions after watching them invent new ways to lose games in head-scratching fashion.
