I often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers
are saying about the Celtics after playing the Celtics. Here's a dose
of 'enemy chatter' from Toronto.
Nope.
Instead, Boston made the Raptors a punching bag yet again on the way to
a 114-107 win, the Celtics' 10th win in 11 games against Toronto over
the last three years. Boston scored the game's first 10 points. From
that point on, their lead fluctuated between two and 15 points,
although there was never the sense that the Raptors could take the game
from the veteran Celtics.
But it was those first two minutes that ended the Raptors. They got hit in the mouth first. Again. And hard.
combined for 32 points, Hedo's five along with DeMar DeRozan's seven
were simply inexcusable, and the key difference in a game that actually
saw Toronto outscore Boston on the break and in the paint.
Impenetrable and unbeatable.
Too tough, too deep, too good.
