Win streak fun

[Taklamar]

Saying the Celts are on a 14 game win streak is just a big number without context.  Let's add context for fun!

The streak is more wins than the following teams;

Indiana           13   14
Phoenix           13   14
Memphis           12   17
Philadelphia   11   18
Milwaukee   11   16
Toronto           10   19
Detroit           10   19
Golden State   10   18
New Jersey   9   21
Charlotte   9   19
Cleveland   8   21
LA Clippers   8   22
Washington   7   20
Minnesota   6   24
Sacramento   5   21

That's half of the league!  It also ties Houston's record.

Celts + Spurs are at a combined 24 game win streak.  Rest of the leagues is 25.

Yes, I'm mentally checking out early for the weekend and looking for anything to do to occupy my time at work, haha.

Good info there, Taklamar. Thanks.

Another oddity:  the 2008 team had the shortest winning streak of any Celtics team during the KG/Ray era, 10 games.

The 2009 team won 19 games in a row (a Celtics record).

The 2010 team won 11 games in a row.

Huh, wouldn't of guessed that, Roy.  The 19 games part puts into perspective how good 14 games is too.

all we need is 20 more wins in a row and we got the record!
