Celtics score 82 in a half against Curry and the Warriors: What is the NBA record?
The NBA record for the most points scored in the first half of an NBA game is 107, a record held jointly by two franchises since the 1990 season.
The Celtics came out like lions, ready to feast on prey that it seemed their better days had passed. The Golden State Warriors have been demolished by a team that was too much to handle. Tatum ended the game with 27 points. Mostly scored at the half. The prolific forward only needed 25 minutes to make things happen. That’s how bad the Warriors played today.
Not even Steph Curry, who only played 17 minutes, was able to put a stop to the bleeding. It was so bad at the half that the Golden State decided to sit their best player and let things go. The best player tonight for them was Lester Quinones, who had 33 injuries and 17 points.
