Just when it seemed the Celtics were finding ways to work around their rebounding woes, Monday night’s matchup against the Jazz reminded them it’s still a work in progress.

Celtics definitely looked like a team playing their 5th game in 7 days. They just didn't have the energy needed to win last night. The Rockets are good and big as well.

It was nice though not to have half the comments complaining about the officials.giving the game to the Celtics. My f...
