Boston Celtics send Chicago Bulls to pasture in 134-99 beatdown

In a commanding 134-99 victory over the Chicago Bulls at TD Garden on Monday evening, the Boston Celtics strengthened their season record to 2-1. The game initially appeared competitive in the first half, but the Celtics gradually gained momentum, tightening the gap as the night progressed.

Coach Joe Mazzulla made a strategic move in the second half by pulling his starters and allowing the bench players to take over, ultimately securing the win in an emphatic fashion. The Celtics demonstrated their dominance across various metrics, including shot attempts (93 to Chicago's 84), rebounds (54-40), assists (26-20), and notably, shot accuracy (47% and 49% for the Celtics compared to the Bulls' 27%).

The Celtics' shooting efficiency from beyond the arc and overall field goal percentage (48% and 49%) were particularly impressive.

Looking ahead, the Celtics will host the Brooklyn Nets at home on Tuesday night.
