The Celtics defeat the Wolves to continue their amazing run

Over the years, opponents have found the TD Garden to be a difficult place to play, but no team has had it as bad in Boston as the Minnesota Timberwolves. On Sunday afternoon, the Celtics' 107-105 victory against the Wolves gave them 18 straight victories over Minnesota in Boston, further solidifying their supremacy over their Western Conference rival. Naz Reid missed a game-winning three-pointer as time ran down on Sunday, giving the Wolves a chance to end the run.

March 2005 marked the beginning of the Celtics' winning streak over the Wolves. Despite having almost their whole lineup except for injured point guard Mike Conley, they were unable to defeat Boston's All-Star team. This defeat continued Minnesota's lackluster start to the season, dropping them back to.500 at 8-8.
