Summary

Boston Celtics absorb brutal 128-101 blowout to Houston Rockets at TD Garden. Was this loss inevitable given the circumstances? John Karalis breaks down the thorough beating, explaining why the Celtics' sixth game in nine nights against a rested, physically dominant Rockets team shooting 65.5% from three was a recipe for disaster. The analysis covers Derrick White's shooting slump, Jaylen Brown's early exit, and why the team's 3-4 start should actually be considered a success given their brutal opening schedule. Key topics include the Rockets' massive size advantage, the free throw disparity that reflected legitimate fouls rather than bad officiating, and Baylor Scheierman's impressive 17-point performance as the lone bright spot. Karalis offers perspective on the upcoming easier stretch against Utah, Washington, and Orlando that could help the Celtics find their rhythm. Hear why this blowout loss doesn't signal deeper problems for Boston.
