This is the exact game you want to see against the Rockets. Let's face it, the Rockets are horrible and the Celtics made that very apparent in tonight's 18 point win. After missing his last 8 games, Jaylen Brown showed out tonight with one of the most impressive 60 second stints I have seen in some time. He started it off with a rebound, hard push, Euro step and impossible finish for 2 and then hits a transition 3 immediately after followed by another transition 3 immediately after that. Overall, this is the type of game you expect to see from the Celtics. JB, Tatum and Schroder carry the bulk of the scoring while everyone else chips in. While the assist numbers might not reflect it, I think the Celtics did a great job of moving the ball and a lot of that started from Smart operating on the block. We saw some great performances from our entire starting lineup as well as Schroder and Romeo tonight and even Nesmith chipped in 5pts in his limited time. The Celtics took care of business tonight but have the biggest test of the season on Wednesday against the Eastern Conference Leading Brooklyn Nets at home.
