SKOR.idBoston Celtics telah memborong semua yang bisa diraih selama musim reguler NBA 2023-2024. Dengan kemenangan atas Oklahoma City Thunder, mereka akan dapat keuntungan menghadapi playoff. 

Celtics mengalahkan Thunder, 135-100, di TD Garden, Rabu (3/4/2024) malam atau Kamis (4/4/2024) WIB. Berarti Jayson Tatum dan kolega akan finis dengan rapor terbaik di liga musim ini dan memiliki keuntungan sebagai tuan rumah selama playoff nanti.

Tentu saja ini membuka lebar jalan mereka menuju NBA Finals. Pasalnya, tim asuhan Joe Mazzulla punya rekor kandang terbaik selama musim reguler 2023-2024, yakni 33 kemenangan dan hanya tiga kali kalah.

Boston Celtics sudah mengklaim status unggulan teratas (seed 1) Wilayah Timur untuk NBA Playoff pekan lalu, sebuah milestone yang belum mampu mereka capai sejak musim 2016-2017. 

Tetapi menjadi yang terbaik pada musim reguler, tak lantas menjamin Celtics otomatis keluar sebagai juara NBA 2023-2024. Terakhir kali tim yang mampu mengombinasikan dua hal tersebut adalah Golden State Warriors pada musim 2016-2017 lalu.

Kala itu Stephen Curry dan kawan-kawan mencetak rekor 67-15 di musim reguler dan hanya kalah satu kali selama fase playoff. Setelah itu, tim unggulan teratas selalu gagal juara, bahkan tidak mencapai NBA Finals.

Sejak musim 2000-2001, tercatat hanya enam kali tim berstatus seed 1 mampu jadi juara NBA, yakni San Antonio Spurs (2002-2003, 2013-2014), Boston Celtics (2007-2008), Miami Heat (2012-2013), dan Golden State Warriors (2014-2015, 2016-2017).

Musim 2023-2024 menghadirkan peluang emas bagi Celtics mengulang sejarah 16 tahun silam. Apalagi secara mental dan performa, tim telah teruji. Mereka terbilang tidak menemui kendala berarti sejauh ini.

“Anda belajar menghargai prosesnya. Memenangkan lebih dari 60 game dan meraih rekor terbaik di liga, itu sebuah pencapaian besar,” Tatum menuturkan setelah pertandingan.

“Rasanya luar biasa. Tetapi Anda harus memenangkan beberapa pertandingan tandang terlepas dari babak playoff untuk dapat mewujudkan apa yang Anda inginkan,” tambahnya.  

Menjamu OKC di TD Garden, Boston Celtics mempertegas dominasinya dalam musim reguler NBA. Kristaps Porzingis tampil superior dengan torehan 27 poin, 12 rebound, dan empat assist. 

Sedangkan Jayson Tatum menyumbang 24 poin dan Jaylen Brown 23 poin. Empat pemain Celtics yang juga mencetak dua digit poin: Al Horford (16), Jrue Holiday (12), Payton Pritchard (11), serta Sam Hauser (10).

Sementara itu, kubu Oklahoma City Thunder mencoba mengandalkan permainan kolektif tanpa kehadiran guard andalan Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Namun, Celtics masih terlalu kuat bagi pasukan Mark Daigneault.  

Bintang muda Australia Josh Giddey jadi top skorer OKC dengan torehan 17 poin. Luguentz Dort (15), Isaiah Joe (13), Cason Wallace (12), Chet Holmgren (11), dan Aaron Wiggins (10) juga mencetak dua digit poin.
