The Washington Wizards and their fans are riding high today. For the second straight game, they completely embarrassed the Boston Celtics to tie this Eastern Conference Semifinals matchup at 2. The game included a 26-0 run in third quarter which was about as bad as it gets. The Wizards shot 53% from the field and […]
The Boston Celtics defeated the Washington Wizards 123-111 at TD Garden on Sunday afternoon. The Wizards got off to a 16-0 lead. The Celtics battled back and cruised in the second half.

The Celtics and Bulls are currently battling in the 2017 NBA Playoffs. While these two team have both had a lot of championship level success, it came at different times.

The Boston Celtics were defeated by the Chicago Bulls 106-102 on Sunday Night. It wasn’t pretty.
