The Boston Celtics clinched the best record in the NBA after defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder 135-100 on Wednesday night.

"We deserve it. I think it's possibly going to matter if we follow through with the vision we have for ourselves," said Kristaps Porzingis, who finished the game with 27 points and 12 rebounds.

The Celtics improved their record to 60-16 on the season. It is the 14th 60-win season in franchise history.

Jaylen Brown added that the team was looking forward to the playoffs.

"We're not skipping any steps. Sixty wins. I think we're on track. When the playoffs start, it's back to square one," said Brown.
