#2 Boston Celtic's Fourth-Worst Defensive Game

The Celtics just didn't seem to have it in them on Saturday night to keep up with what the Chicago Bulls were throwing at them. While their offence did not look too bad, their defence was all over the place.

In the first quarter, led by Al Horford, the Celtics started the game with a 7-0 run and finished with a 33-28 lead. However, this didn't last very long as Chicago started the second quarter with a 10-0 burst and took a 64-51 lead at halftime.
