After surrendering 37 points in the opening 12 minutes, the Celtic defense came to life, conceding just 55 points in the final three quarters.
It was great to see the guys pick up the intensity after a tumultuous opening period and get a great road win against an excellent team.
104 points isn't a high number for our record-setting offense, but the difference in efficiency between the C's and New Orleans was the difference in the game.
Despite attempting fewer field goals and free throws, Boston outshot New Orleans from all three levels of the court, which proved to be the deciding factor.
