"At home, we do a great job of talking, doing everything that we're supposed to do," forward Anthony Davis told ESPN.com. "We gotta bring that same energy, that same effort on the road. Make sure that we talk. The biggest thing is communication."
Boston has lost five of its last six games, including two in a row. The Celtics faced a physical Chicago Bulls team and couldn't stay with them, only making two three-pointers from behind the arc and making 16 of 23 free throws.
"I am very encouraged and the reason why is we played very physical," rookie head coach Brad Stevens told ESPN.com. "We missed some chippies, but those things don't really weigh on me. I think this is the best we have played in the last seven games."
Due to the snow storms that hit Chicago, the Celtics had to travel back to Boston on Friday, leaving the team less time to get ready for the game.
"We just have to be ready to play," forward Jeff Green said. "That's the way it is with a back to back. We just have to make sure we get our rest."
