Yes, this West Coast road trip did wonders for the Boston Celtics (especially that magical plane ride).
But you can have too much of a good thing.
After the Los Angeles Clippers squashed the Celtics' hopes for a West Coast sweep Monday night in a 140-115 rout, Kyrie Irving suggested the best way for Boston to bounce back was to get the heck out of Hollywood.
The C's spent the better part of five days in L.A. -- and all the distractions it offers -- while playing the Lakers and Clippers, so we'll take Irving at his word that a change in scenery will do his squad some good.
"We were successful on this road trip," Irving said prior to that answer when asked what he'll take away from the four-game trip. "We came here to go 4-0. Obviously, we didn’t have that, we went 3-1. Now we go back home and finish business. We gotta keep it moving."

Kyrie and Co. have some time to settle in back home; they're off until Thursday, when they'll kick off a three-game homestand against the Sacramento Kings at TD Garden.
