“Best record in the NBA is officially ours”: Boston Celtics fans celebrate 60th win and home advantage in playoffs

The Boston Celtics fans celebrated the side’s 60th win which gave them a home advantage in the upcoming NBA playoffs.

The Celtics continued their winning streak as they defeated an already playoffs-qualified Oklahoma City Thunder side with a score of 135-100 at the TD Garden in Boston on Wednesday.

With that win, the Celtics have now secured the home advantage throughout the NBA playoffs and the Finals this season. It was only the third time in the history of the NBA that the Celtics have secured 60 or more wins in the regular season.

Those numbers caused the fans to celebrate and they did so on the social media platform X. “I'm not chopping onions. You're chopping onions,” one user wrote. “Best record in NBA is officially ours,” another one wrote.

The star of the show on the night for the winning team was Kristaps Porzingis who registered 27 points to go with 12 rebounds and four assists.

He was well-supported by forward Jayson Tatum and shooting guard Jaylen Brown. Tatum finished with 24 points to go with seven rebounds and three assists to his name. On the other hand, Brown registered 23 points to go with seven rebounds on the night.
