The Boston Celtics bounced back from a tough loss against the Oklahoma City Thunder by defeating the Denver Nuggets 118-106. Despite growing concerns about this team, Boston showed why they are still one of the best teams in the NBA.

It has been apparent even to the untrained eye that KP has not been himself when on the court for the Celtics since returning from an ankle injury.

When speaking to the media following the game, Kristaps Porzingis admitted Boston had made some uncharacteristic errors during the game. He noted how they had been "stupid" with some of their decision-making and that the Thunder's defensive intensity was a genuine factor in Boston's loss.

The Celtics also have a really good sixth man who is in the running for Sixth Man of the Year. Payton Pritchard has been playing the best basketball of his young career. He's averaging 14.8 points per game on 46.7 percent shooting from the field and 42 percent shooting from three.
