The Celtics’ Epic Grizzly Grand Slam!…
Move over Captain Ahab, because the Boston Celtics just logged a 6-0 road trip that would make even the saltiest sea dog tip his hat with awe! In a history-making, rim-rattling showdown, the Celtics turned the Memphis Grizzlies into Grizzly teddy bears with a 117-103 triumph! Flashy feats and jaw-dropping jump shots? Check! They’ve zigzagged through the NBA like a hot knife through butter, tying their all-time record for consecutive away-game wins set by legends back in 1973. Oh, and each time they’ve danced this far down Dunk Street, it’s climaxed in a Finals fiesta!
Enter the comic-book hero, Derrick “Big Shot” White, who slayed the three-pointer dragon like it was his job! With more splash than a rogue whale, he shattered Isaiah Thomas’s single-season record with a fourth-quarter nuke that’ll go down in basketball folklore. White’s Herculean effort came amidst wild cheers and every swing of his cape as he faced down all challengers, including the towering Zach Edey who looked like he’d just spotted Bigfoot. Keep an eye on that leaderboard: There’s a bit of a showdown brewing for supreme shooting bragging rights!
Meanwhile, Al “Fine Wine” Horford turned the court into his personal runway, strutting his stuff with a cool 26-point, 8-rebound hootenanny. Ladies and gents, give it up for the oldest Celtic to boss a 25+ point game since Robert Parish was king! His three-point zingers were fresher than grandma’s apple pie with a scoop of razzle-dazzle to boot. And when it counted, Horford dropped clutch threes like they were on sale, pushing his team to a comfy double-digit lead. Call it superhero swagger or just the juice of experience, but Horford left no doubt who’s the boss when the Celtics need a closer. The hardwood? His kingdom. The ball? His scepter!
