The Celtics made it 5 wins in a row on Sunday, and 9 out of 10, by beating Toronto 118-103. For the second straight game, the Celtics came out firing, outscoring the Raptors 32-20 in the 1st quarter. Hopefully, the slow starts have become a thing of the past. Rajon Rondo was aggressive again, attacking the basket, and went for 15 points on 6-11 shooting. Ray Allen led the C's with 21 points, and was on fire from beyond the arc, going 5 for 7. Kendrick Perkins had another solid game, adding 12 points and 8 rebounds. However, he also picked up another technical foul this afternoon, albeit highly questionable. But, the best stat once again was the fact that the Big Three all played less than 32 minutes. This not only bodes well for them, but also the bench, as they seem to be getting into sync, with Tony Allen scoring 15 points, and adding 6 boards, and Eddie House chipping in with 11.
