The Boston Celtics had no mercy for former Celtics reserve guard Anfernee Simons and his Chicago Bulls teammates in their first meeting since trading the Florida native to the Bulls for former Chicago big man Nikola Vucevic at TD Garden on Wednesday (Feb. 11) night. Boston jumped out to an early, big lead at the end of the first quarter, and never looked back to win 124-105.
In a contest they led by as much as 33 points, the Celtics won the shot attempt struggle 95-89 while holding the Bulls to just 33% from beyond the arc, and easily won the battle of the boards 48-34. It led to an easy win for Boston, who now improve to 35-19 on the season and improve to a full game ahead of the New York Knicks for second in the East, trailing the Detroit Pistons by five games.
Let’s take a look at some of the best plays captured in images in the win for the Celtics.
