Celtics on CLNS

Celtics win their 4th game in a row. This is the longest winning streak for the team this season. They take on the Thunder on Friday in the TD Garden. 

The Boston Celtics put a four-game win streak on the line in a home game against Russell Westbrook's Oklahoma City Thunder. Elsewhere in the East, Cleveland Cavaliers starter J.R. Smith is set to its 12-14 weeks with a broken thumb.

The Boston Celtics take a trip to Indiana to face the banged-up and .500 Indiana Pacers Thursday night. On Wednesday, a win by the Dallas Mavericks leaves the Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers as the long NBA teams with a league-worst seven wins.

Isaiah Thomas propelled the Boston Celtics to their biggest win of the season at the Memphis Grizzlies. Meanwhile, the No. 1 team in the East lost a starter for a significant amount of time, presenting teams like the Celtics and Toronto Raptors an opportunity to pounce.

Isaiah Thomas carried the Boston Celtics to a crucial win over the Memphis Grizzlies behind 44 points on the road.  Is it time to start asking for historical perspective on IT? And where does the trade rank in Celtics history? Larry H. Russell is joined by the Boston Globe's Bob Ryan.

In the game of the year for the Boston Celtics, the Celtics were able to outscore the Memphis Grizzlies by a combined score of 81-64 in the second half, plus overtime, to outlast the Memphis Grizzlies by a final score of 112-109.

In what could have been described as an old-fashioned prize fight – with the offensively gifted Celtics going up against the physically imposing Grizzlies – both sides came prepared.

Isaiah Thomas established a career-high in points (regular season and playoffs) with 44 points, and became just the fifth player since the 1983-84 season (playoffs included) to finish a game with 44 points or more on 16 or less field goal attempts.
