Boston Celtics Secure Best Record in NBA, Eyeing Championship Glory
In a commanding display of dominance, the Boston Celtics clinched the best record in the NBA with a resounding 135-100 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night. This milestone marks the first time since their championship-winning season in 2008 that the Celtics have achieved such a feat.
Head coach Joe Mazzulla expressed the significance of this accomplishment, acknowledging the rarity of the moment. “It’s very hard to do. We may never be in this position again,” Mazzulla remarked. “We talked about it as a team, treating this game as the clincher. It was important for us to simulate that mentality.”
This victory marked the Celtics’ 60th win of the season, extending their record of 60-win seasons to an impressive 14. Leading the pack in this category, the Celtics continue to solidify their place among the league’s elite.
Furthermore, the Celtics’ staggering margin of victory in numerous games highlights their sheer dominance this season. With an impressive net rating of plus-12.0, the Celtics find themselves in esteemed company, matching the 1996-97 Chicago Bulls for the second-best net rating in NBA history.
While these statistics underscore the Celtics’ formidable presence on the court, they also serve as a reminder of the team’s ultimate goal: securing an NBA championship.
With the playoffs looming ahead, the Celtics remain focused and determined, understanding that each step in the postseason requires diligence and effort.
“We’re not skipping any steps,” affirmed Jaylen Brown. “Sixty wins. I think we’re on track. When the playoffs start, it’s back to square one.”
As the Celtics continue their pursuit of championship glory, their remarkable regular-season performance sets the stage for what promises to be an electrifying postseason campaign. With talent, experience, and unwavering determination on their side, the Celtics are poised to make a compelling case for NBA supremacy once again.
