BOSTON — The coach has called out the players, a player has called out the coach, teammates are publicly sniping and the team has been loudly booed in each of its three home games. Other than that, the Celtics season is off to a stellar start.
What’s going on in Boston? If not for hapless Houston and a furious fourth quarter comeback in Charlotte, the Celtics could easily be winless to start the year. On Monday, the Bulls ripped off a 39-11 run in the fourth quarter, turning a 14-point deficit into a 14-point win.
