If we continue the streak, we tie the franchise record for wins (19) at Pacers, then chance to break it at home against Pistons.

Great win tonight.  Smart made some outstanding plays down the stretch to slow down the Hawks offense.

I think this could have been a trap/letdown game.  As we kind of came out lethargic against the Hawks.

But as usual our Celtics clawed their way back and eventually took the lead and came away with the victory.

But did you see that Kyrie fade away 3 to push the lead to 9?  That was nasty!

How many regular season games left to win?

Just stopping and soaking this in. What a great time to be a Celtics fan, regardless of what happens the remainder of this season.

WE'RE ON TO DALLAS

Our offense looked terrible in the first quarter.

The subs in the second quarter started to move the ball really well and break down the defense. They looked a lot like the team from last year as they moved the ball. Marcus Morris and Terry Rozier were absolutely key in that stretch as we got comfortable on offense.

Though we were up and down in our offense in the third and fourth quarter, we moved the ball better than I've seen yet this season. That's really encouraging.

It led to an insanely efficient shooting night. If we took care of the ball more, we would have won by 20.

I can't wait until we put together a really good complete game.

In between those?

@ Mavs, @ Heat, then home for the Magic.

Another strong finish after a tough start. Are the C's now the target?

Budenholzer looking really deflated in presser now.  Felt like his guys brought it but we're overwhelmed.  They are still better than I thought they would be after the exodus of all their core players.

The game is close and at about 6:50 of the fourth Irving comes in and I just think the opponent sags...

"Oh well...he's in the game."
