Since the start of the new year, few teams have played as well as the Boston Celtics had until their recent pair of losses to teams they should have easily beaten on paper, but facing tough, physical resistance from the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers handed the Celtics their only two losses in 13 games.
After a rough start to the season that saw Boston drop games to teams with inferior rosters with startling regularity, one could almost see a wave of anxiety wash over the fanbase with the losses, but star forward Jaylen Brown brushed off such concerns while speaking with the media after the Pacers’ loss on Sunday.
Asked if there was increased pressure for Boston to get back into the win column given their poor start to 2021-22, the Georgia native replied “I don’t think so.”
