I'm liking the Celtics right now. IMO they still have a chance for the playoffs. Big game vs. Milwaukee on Friday. Milwaukee plays the Knicks and Kings before then and we play the Raptors, Washington and Sixers, all winnable games for us. If by some miracle the Knicks beat the Bucks tonight we would be 4.5 back. Then we can beat the Raptors tomorrow for 4 games back. Beat Washington on Tuesday and go 3.5 back. Beat the Sixers and Bucks lose to the Kings on Wednesday and were 2.5 back. Then beat them on Friday and were 1.5 back right in it.
Wishful thinking? Yes. Can it be done? Yes.
