There may not have been a better way for the Boston Celtics to come out of the All-Star break than the way they handled the Golden State Warriors on Thursday. Boston dominated the Warriors and held off a late comeback attempt for a 121-110 victory at Chase Center.
They led by double digits for the entire second half, and at one point held a 34-point advantage. Early on, it didn’t always look like that was going to be the case.
Golden State held their own in the first quarter, trailing by just four after the opening frame.
