After four games, the Boston Celtics are tied with the Dallas Mavericks for best record at 4-0. Here's part of the reason why.
Average Points Per Game: 1st -127.0 points
Point differential: 1st - +20.5 points
Rebounds: 1st - 52.3 rebounds
Field Goal Percentage: 2nd - 50.7%
3-Point Percentage: 5th - 40.4%
Free Throw Percentage: 3rd - 83.8%
So this season's version of The Green scores a lot of points, and does so with efficiency. And their work on the boards is topnotch with almost every player involved.
How about the defense? The Celtics are ranked 9th - allowing 105.7 points per game. And they still attempt a lot of 3-pointers (ranked 4th at 41.5 attempts per game) - but thus far are hitting them at a good clip (see above).
Only four games, but a promising start to the season. And I love watching this crew play the game. "Are you not entertained?"
