The Boston Celtics entered Thursday night with a 13-game winning streak … and they are leaving the night with a 14-game winning streak.
Despite the fact that they trailed big in the second half, and despite the fact that the Golden State Warriors are considered the best team in the NBA by many, the Celtics still managed to pull off the victory.
Down by 17 to the reigning champs?

Oh yeah, Jaylen Brown also ripped the ball from Stephen Curry and then followed that up with a monster dunk at one point, and you can catch that action in the video above.
When it was all said and done, Brown scored 22 points, and the Celtics won by the score of 92-88.
Boston is the best team in the league right now, and they proved that tonight by knocking off the defending national champs. The Celtics also have the best record in the league at 14-2 — you know, just for good measure.
