Celtics assists to made baskets

Once again, a win (even with a pretty sloppy 4th quarter of garbage time hoops) when the Cs assist on 67 % of their made baskets.

When this team shares the ball like they did tonight (and have done on many other nights in victories) they are pretty difficult to beat regardless of
just about any other combination of stats.

This was always a favorite stat of Sam's. As the 2008 team proved that even 60% was enough to win consistently. Sharing and many touches on a possession kept the team away from hero ball or 1 vs 5 play popularized by LeBron in his early days.
