The Boston Celtics routed the Indiana Pacers on Friday evening in what was a get-right game for themselves. After the fact, head coach Joe Mazzulla had one of his classic quotes to sum up the performance.

In the game, star forward Jaylen Brown made some Boston history, joining Larry Bird and Paul Pierce. His play of late has finally earned him justification for the max contract he signed years ago.

Additionally, during the Celtics loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Christmas Day, 76ers star center Joel Embiid was fined for a gesture toward the Boston crowd.
