COMMENTARY
The Celtics have surprisingly been one of the best offensive teams in the NBA for the first half of the NBA season, largely thanks to the stellar play of Isaiah Thomas, as well as some improved 3-point shooting throughout the roster.
Boston’s first few games since returning from the All-Star break have shown signs, however, that the Celtics’ high-powered attack could be on the verge of regressing to the mean. The Celtics have shot under 43 percent in three straight games for the first time all season, leading to two ugly losses to the Raptors and Hawks and another tight contest against the Pistons.
