The Boston Celtics took the Dallas Mavericks‘ best punch in the first half of their home tilt with the Texan ball club on this past Friday night, then systematically shut the Mavs down on the perimeter in the second half.
Holding Dallas to just 26.5% from beyond the arc on the night, Boston quickly pulled away in the latter part of the third quarter and never looked back. Three Celtics starters scored at least 20 points in the 138-110 blowout, and a total of seven of Boston’s players put up double digit scoring. Against a team that had gone 8-2 in its previous 10 games in a stacked Western Conference, that’s no mean feat.
After the win, the host of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast weighed in on the blowout victory.
