If the Celtics won to cover this spread then The Jays need to pick up where they left off. Ride Boston to the end of this one. The Celtics have one of the older teams in the league with a lot of veteran players. The Rockets are not a good team, that is a true statement. The Celtics seemed to enjoy their Christmas as they handled the Milwaukee Bucks pretty easily. They now face the top team in the NBA as their path doesn’t get any easier.

Houston Rockets (10-23) at Boston Celtics (24-10) Game #35 12/27 ... (CelticsBlog)

This is the first of 2 games between these two teams this season. They will meet for the 2nd time on March 13 in Houston. The Celtics have swept the last two ...

The Rockets had to travel, stay in a hotel, play in front of a hostile crowd and on an unfamiliar court. Be Aggressive - The Celtics have to be aggressive in taking the ball to the basket and not settling for 3 pointers on every possession, especially if the 3s aren’t falling. They underestimated the Magic and lost to them in spite of their lowly record. The Rockets are 28th with a defensive rating of 115.0 while the Celtics are 7th with a defensive rating of 110.7. Much of rebounding is effort and when the Celtics put out extra effort on the boards, it usually carries over into the rest of their game. The Rockets are playing in the second of back to back games. The Celtics are averaging 118.7 points per game (1st). The Celtics need to defend him well to keep him from having a big game. The Celtics need to slow him down in this game. Derrick White has been playing well for the Celtics and hopefully he continues to do so in this game. They are 4-13 on the road and 3-7 in their last 10 games. They are 1 game behind 14th place San Antonio and 3.5 games behind the 13th place

Houston Rockets vs Boston Celtics: Prediction, Starting Lineups ... (Lineups)

Well, that's one way to break out of a scoring slump. After going through a brutal stretch as one of the most anemic offenses in the league, the Boston.

[Al Horford](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/al-horford) [Jayson Tatum](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/jayson-tatum) [Jaylen Brown](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/jaylen-brown) [Marcus Smart](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/marcus-smart) [Alperen Sengun](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/alperen-sengun) [Eric Gordon](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/eric-gordon) [Jalen Green](https://www.lineups.com/nba/player-stats/jalen-green) This is exactly what we want as they are weak at producing scoring chances in the fastbreak. While the Rockets defense has been lackluster, they do excel in crashing the boards which gives us a huge boost for our under tickets. Heavily shifting their offensive identity to the Warriors, relying on efficient looks from the perimeter and crashing the glass. Now they have to take on the best defense in the league on the road with zero days’ rest. While the Rockets are certainly no threat like the Bucks, they certainly can stay within the number should the Celtics offensive production take a dip again.

You have to understand that we have a small margin for error to win any game. "You just got to have a winning mentality," Gordon said.

That basket seemed to be a microcosm of the entire game, as the Celtics strung together multiple wins for the first time since a three-game streak from Dec. "And I think our last two games, we've kind of done that." Jayson Tatum scored 41 points on 14-of-22 shooting to lead the Celtics against Milwaukee.

Celtics vs. Rockets takeaways: The Jays carry C's to third straight win (NBC Sports Boston)

Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum combined for 77 points as the Celtics took down the Rockets at TD Garden, 126-102. We share our takeaways from Boston's third ...

And rather than faltering against a lesser opponent after their encouraging Christmas Day win, the C's rose to the occasion with another blowout. It was getting worrisome for the Celtics prior to their current three-game win streak. Time to get him back into the starting five. [Jaylen Brown](https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/celtics/jaylen-brown?b) and [Jayson Tatum](https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/celtics/jayson-tatum?b) carried the Celtics with a combined 77 points. It's the 18th time Brown and Tatum have both scored 30+ points in a game. He was just as efficient as Brown, shooting 12-of-25 from the floor and 6-of-16 from beyond the arc. Time Lord was listed as questionable heading into the matchup due to an illness, but he appeared to be at full strength. After a quiet second frame, the 26-year-old erupted with 21 more points in the second half to finish with 39 on 14-of-26 shooting (6-15 3-PT). the Bucks with a 38-point outing against the Rockets. They continued to carry the load from there. Second-year guard Jalen Green led the Rockets with 28 points.

As a part of that script, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum are settling into a groove somewhat akin to a boxing match. Brown does the heavy lifting early with a ...

Finally, it’s important the Celtics get this one, because they won’t see much of Boston to open the new year. They close out the long homestand with a chance to finish on the right side at 4-3 when they host the LA Clippers on Thursday. But executing a gameplan to eliminate one part of an opponent’s offense often has a carryover to the rest of the offense. Boston went 3-for-3 on ATO sets in this one, which is enough to let Stoudamire call the looks for at least the next couple of games! Then he uses his handle to get to the paint, before absorbing the contact and swooping for the and-1: And down the stretch, Porter and Green both seemed to run out of gas, as Boston ran away with the game. Because the Rockets defense collapses, Tatum makes the smart kickout to Al Horford to beat the buzzer: This is a nice hesitation dribble to blow by the Rockets for the lefty hammer: As the game went along, it became obvious that Boston’s defensive gameplan was to chase the Rockets off the arc as much as possible. With the Rockets hanging around, Brown took over and pushed the Celtics to a double-digit lead. There are times when Tatum catches the ball, looks ahead and just decides he’s getting all the way to the cup. They play it close for the better part of three quarters, and then they explode and run away late.
