All-Star Weekend is the unofficial halfway point of the NBA season. You wouldn’t be wrong to suggest that the Celtics have gone through more trials and tribulations than any team should at the halfway mark. They’ve lost their starting point guard and power forward, and they recently said goodbye to backup Leandro Barbosa for the rest of the season. They’ve endured a six-game win streak, six-game losing streak, and six-game win streak, all in succession. With so much going on, there is no shortage of awards to be handed out at the break. Who stepped up? What was the best moment? Click through to see the best and worst.
