Despite winning their last game at home before the All Star break, the Boston Celtics continue to struggle now that they’re on their five game West coast road trip.
The Celtics opened up the trip with a 101-104 loss to Sacramento, where Delonte West scored 23 points. The trip has continued on with a 118-108 loss to the Suns, a 122-96 loss to the Lakers and finally a 105-87 loss to the Jazz Saturday night in Utah. Monday night the Celtics will look to snap the four game skid with a win over the Houston Rockets.
Despite the team’s poor record for the trip, Delonte West has continued to play well and have averaged 17 points through the four losses — six points higher than his season average.
Monday’s game against the Rockets will tip off at 8:30PM ET with coverage provided by FSN. The last time the Rockets and Celtics met, the Rockets came away with a 91-73 win. In that game back on December 7, 2005 — Delonte had 12 points in 38 minutes of play.
With these past four losses, the Celtics have dropped to 13 and 42 — good enough for the leagues worst record.
