SWAG ON ‘EM!
The Chicago Bulls were in Boston tonight, facing a surprising Celtics team that has more wins than they do. It wasn’t going to be a walk in the park for Chitown and in the end it proved to be too much at the TD Garden for Derrick Rose and company.
The highlight of the game came in the second quarter with the score tied at 35. Converting turnovers into fast break opportunities, Evan Turner pick pocketed D. Rose and put on the jets to go coast to coast for the slam. Only thing is, he added a little flare to the hammer, completing the 360 and giving the home crowd something to really cheer about.
Turner came off the bench for the Celts, finishing the game with 13 points, 5 assists and 5 rebounds. Isaiah Thomas led Boston in scoring with 20 points of his own. On the other side of the ball, Jimmy Butler dropped 36 points for the visiting side, in the close loss.
FINAL: BOS 105 | CHI 100
