10 More Wins To Pass Last year

That headline alone should be enough to make dormant Cs fans sit up and take notice. Your Boston Celtics are now 10 wins away from surpassing last year's win total of 24.

Amazing. Just 17 games into the young season, they are on pace to win 72 games—a net gain of 48 wins.

The Green got their 15th win by hanging on to defeat the despicable 76ers, 113-103. TNBT contributed mightily to the cause—Pierce with 19 and 12 assists; Garnett with 22 points and 7 boards; Ray Allen with 12 points. But it was two of the newly invigorated other new guys who made the big shots when it counted most—particularly James Posey with 17 points and Eddie House with 15. All in all, pretty impressive.
