The Boston Celtics keep marching on.
Joe Mazzulla’s team has gotten some well-deserved rest after taking care of business vs. the Indiana Pacers in just four games.
Some have criticized them for the easy path they’ve had to the NBA Finals, but it’s not like they got to choose their opponents or were responsible for their injuries.
If anything, that’s why having the best record and caring in the regular season matters.
So, with the biggest stage ahead of them, it only made sense that the Celtics blew off some steam and celebrated.
The team’s Twitter account shared a clip of their locker room after the win, and the vibes were great.

This Celtics team has been through a lot.
Despite their youth, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are two of the players with the most postseason experience in the league, and the fact that they haven’t been able to get over the hump has often hurt their reputation.
But with all their baggage and what they’ve gone through, a good tactician as a coach, and the best supporting cast they’ve ever had, it feels like their time has finally come.
They won’t have an easy opponent in the next round for the first time in the playoffs, which is why getting this much time to get some shut-eye and heal their bodies will be crucial.
