If C's can't win this game,   Which admitted without Sully will be tuff ,   They probably don't belong in the playoff .

I'm not expecting a win.

Now if two teams vying for 8th place have identical records at the end of the season, don't they go off of head-to-head record to determine who advances to the playoffs? If so, we're really going to need to step up our game against the teams we're competing against, because it's close enough that there might end up being identical records when it's all said and done. Thus, this season our record against the six teams vying for the 7th and 8th seed is (correct me if I'm wrong):
Miami: 0-2
Charlotte: 0-2
Brooklyn: 2-1
Detroit: 1-0
Indiana:1-1

So we're really going to have to perform well in the games against these guys if we plan on making the playoffs.

Correct, although if we break even with Brooklyn I believe that it becomes divisional standing (don't quote me on that, though).
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

For what it is worth vegas puts celtics at -3.5 point favorites

I hope so! I have always liked the guy....plus I picked him tonight for the "Pick a Player Over/Under Points game" More of you guys should play that, btw!

What do you mean by divisional standing, because aren't divisional standings also based on record?

Cannot leave Big Al one-on-one with Zeller. Zeller one of the worst post defenders amongst starting centers in the league. Big Al the best post scorer. Gotta send help.

MKG is one of the worst offensive SFs in the league. Help off of him.
Zeller is a below average offensive player outside of 12 feet.
Henderson is a strong two point shooter but lacks three point range.

There is no reason why Stevens isn't sending help down low for Zeller on Big Al.
