Boston Celtics shut down the New Orleans Pelicans 104-92 in defensive showcase

The Boston Celtics got back in the win column and avoided a three-game skid for the third time this season on this past Saturday afternoon (March 30). The Celtics beat the New Orleans Pelicans 104-92 on the road at Smoothie King Center with a strong second half performance after the Pels punched them in the mouth early in the contest.

“They upped their intensity, and we didn’t match it,” said New Orleans star forward Zion Williamson after the game via the Associated Press. “When we decided to match it, the game was kind of out of hand at that point.”

The hosts of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast, Jack Simone and Sam LaFrance, weighed in on the defensive-oriented victory on a recent episode. Check it out below!
