Jrue Holiday Wholeheartedly Sums Up Celtics’ Second Home Loss Of Season

Even if the Boston Celtics have the best record in the NBA (35-11), a rival team may still visit TD Garden and demonstrate to the group that they are not always a flawless unit. That is exactly what the Los Angeles Clippers accomplished in their 115-96 victory over Boston, which is just the Celtics’ second home loss of the year. Guard for the Boston Celtics Jrue Holiday made only two of his eleven field goals, shooting just 18.1%.

“Good old-fashioned (expletive) whooping,” Holiday described the loss to reporters, as seen on NBC Sports Boston’s postgame coverage. “They did everything better. Rebounding, transition, 50-50 ball … it seemed like they were a step ahead.”

Holiday seems to have absorbed Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla’s philosophy of learning from every game and transferring it to the next, even though the defeat may hurt in the short term.

Undoubtedly humble. We understand that the season is lengthy, but I believe it should be possible to come home and get your ass kicked,” stated Holiday. We’re aware that we can take this as a lesson and file it away for later. We should never forget that we played a great game just before.

Jayson Tatum (21 points) was the lone starter for the C’s to reach double-digits in scoring in the loss. Jaylen Brown had an off night, connecting on just three shots for eight points. Kristaps Porzingis was sidelined with an ankle injury he suffered in Boston’s win over the Miami Heat on Thursday. Al Horford started in his place and didn’t record a single point in 19 minutes of playing time.

The newspaper reporter said on its website that Ibrox authorities were present as the top scorer in the Scottish Premiership scored his 19th goal of the year. Shankland has 18 months left on his current deal, but Steven Naismith is sure that he will stay at Tynecastle until they receive a “huge” offer.
