As Payton Pritchard spoke to reporters following Boston's Jan. 9 win against the Toronto Raptors -- the Celtics' 14th win in 18 games -- a simple question was lobbed his way inside TD Garden's home locker room.
Are you surprised at the way this season has played out?
A smirk crossed the point guard's face before the question was even finished, giving way to a rapid response.
"I'm not surprised at all," he said.
To say Pritchard and Boston are in the minority is an understatement.
