The Boston Celtics finally didn’t play down to a lesser opponent and beat the Houston Rockets 118-102. It was truly a great all-around showing from the team, great ball movement, great rotational defense, and efficient play from the stars.

Starting with the obvious, Robert Williams. He posted 20 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, two steals, and a block on a perfect 9-9 from the field.
