Celtics vs. Bulls / Dec 19 / 2024-25 Season

The Celtics got worked by the Bulls and the refs on Thursday, losing at home after a long layoff, 117-108. It was an off-shooting night for the C's combined with a quality effort from the visitors that ended in frustration. Jayson Tatum led the way with 31/10/6, but he was outdueled by Zach LaVine and company. If you thought the players were frustrated, you should have seen Joe Mazzulla; he almost killed a man. Chud and Doug break it all down, give out their Chuddy Chains, and take a long trip around the NBA.
