The Boston Celtics might not be too happy about snapping their four-game winning streak with a loss to the Brooklyn Nets, but compared to what the hapless Houston Rockets are dealing with, it’s a walk in the park.
Ever since they traded James Harden to the team that just beat Boston, things have been trending downward, and especially over the last few weeks with the Rockets having lost a league-worst 15 games in a row. And with nearly half the team listed as out or questionable to a cornucopia of maladies and malcontent, Houston’s fortunes may need a miracle to turn vs. Boston.
Though the Celtics have been known to gift such teams a win in some of their worst moments this season.
