Through 3 Quarters
Down one at the end of last quarter, the Boston Celtics have now snagged the lead. They have emerged as the frontrunner after three quarters and are ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers 93-84. Nobody has stood out from the pack for Boston offensively yet. Boston is out front, but they can’t get complacent.
Meanwhile, the contest between Boston and the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday was not a total blowout, but with Boston falling 110-99 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one.
