Kyrie Irving nets 47 as Celtics come from behind for 16th straight win

The Boston Celtics' 16-game winning streak has been built on big comebacks and consistent crunchtime dominance. The Dallas Mavericks became the most recent victim Monday night, as the Celtics rallied from a 13-point deficit in the fourth quarter to pull out a 110-102 overtime victory, fueled by All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving's spectacular efficient, season-high 47-point performance. It marked the eighth comeback win during Boston's streak, which is three games shy of tying the franchise record set during the 2008-09 season.
