Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge likes what he sees through six games but still thinks the team can be more consistent.
“We’ve had some really bad halves and some fantastic halves of basketball,” Ainge said Thursday morning on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s “Toucher and Rich.” “There’s always going to be something, but I’m excited about what I’m seeing and how our guys have been able to battle through the tough times of the game, hang in there, and start making shots when the ball’s not going in for stretches.”
After a season-opening loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, the Celtics have strung together a five-game win streak highlighted by a come-from-behind victory over the Milwaukee Bucks and Jayson Tatum’s first-ever NBA game-winner two days later.
