Happy to be playing as they were early in the season, the Celtics now turn to making it consistent

Can Boston keep their play connected and engaged over a long regular season?

The Boston Celtics finally snapped their three-game losing streak and hopefully their recent skid by reclaiming the NBA’s best record with a 121-109 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves Friday night by returning to a brand of basketball that saw the team attack the rim and look for easy makes off cuts and transition offense.

While many players brush off media criticism if they read it at all, star Celtics wing Jaylen Brown admitted postgame that not only has he been paying attention to what has been said about his team’s struggles of late, but also hinted that he’s been even more judgemental of his own play.

“We’ve got a lot of critics in Boston,” explained Brown via CLNS Media, “but I’m my biggest.”
