Interesting time to look at these splits as the Suns come to Boston Friday. The Celtics 27-point win in Phoenix on Dec. 7 moved them to 21-5.

Through 50 games this season, the Kings are 29-21.
Game 50 last season, the Kings lost to the Hawks 121-104, part of a 7 game losing streak, and fell to 18-32.
An 11 win improvement in one season through 50 games is crazy. They are also 1 win shy of last season’s total. – 10:34 PM
