The Celtics got another blowout win over the Spurs, thanks to a lot of contributions, starting with Jaylen Brown's great all-around game, Jrue Holiday's hot shooting, and some great contributions off the bench to help keep Victor Wembanyama somewhat in check. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal gets into the hot shooting and bench energy that helped build a 30 point lead, the relaxed attitude that cost them a lot of that lead, and getting it back without any real damage being done. Plus, the great vibes showed themselves again, but a quote from Gregg Popovich shows the real work that goes into developing that kind of atmosphere.
