Celtics Rout Wizards Again: Jays Lead the Charge
The Boston Celtics are on a roll, and the Washington Wizards are feeling the heat. For the second time this week, the Celtics completely dominated the Wizards, putting up a 126-112 victory on the road. The Jays – Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown – were once again the driving force behind the Celtics’ success.
Tatum was absolutely on fire, dropping a 35-point masterpiece, including a perfect 7-for-7 performance from the three-point line. He was simply unstoppable, slicing through the Wizards' defense with ease. It was a performance that showed why he's considered one of the league's most elite scorers.
Brown was no slouch either, adding 27 points and 5 assists of his own. The two Jays have been a dominant duo all season, but they were especially clicking on all cylinders against the Wizards.
The Celtics looked sharp on both ends of the court, distributing the ball beautifully and locking down the Wizards defensively. They were flying all over the court, grabbing rebounds, deflecting passes, and making life miserable for Washington.
The win pushes the Celtics' record to 18-8, solidifying their position as a legitimate contender in the Eastern Conference. As for the Wizards, they'll need to figure out a way to stop the bleeding before they fall too far behind in the standings.
This game was a total blowout, but it wasn't just about the Celtics' offensive firepower. They were dominant on defense, forcing turnovers and keeping the Wizards off balance throughout the game. Their teamwork and hustle were truly impressive.
The Celtics' next opponent is the Brooklyn Nets, another tough test. But based on their recent form, they should be confident heading into that match-up. If they keep playing at this level, they'll be a force to be reckoned with throughout the season.
