Now that the Boston Celtics have thoroughly manhandled a lesser team for the first time since the All Star break, they can take a moment to look forward to the upcoming schedule.

The Celtics should have plenty of confidence from their wins against the Cavaliers and Warriors, and now they can ease that nagging worry about under performing against far worse teams.
