No Durant, No James Harden, Kyrie Irving only scores 15 vs the Celtics without Jaylen Brown, Kemba Walker and Jayson Tatum scores 38 you would think Boston has the game. NOT SO FAST LADIES AND GENTLEMAN. The Celtics had that happen Friday night and sure enough it was proven that there is no game that is a guaranteed win with them as the Celtics were defeated 109-104 giving the Brooklyn Nets a 3-0 Season Series sweep making it that the Celtics finished all their games against the Eastern Conferences top 3 teams with no wins against the top 2 seeds in the 76ers and the Nets and a 2-1 record against the Milwaukee Bucks. Many expected the Celtics to lose this game to begin with as the Celtics were playing a rested Nets team while the Celtics were on the 2nd night of a back to back. Both sides were missing key players which was a theme in all 3 matchups this season. So the Celtics finished the last week at 2-2 beating the Warriors and the Suns but losing to the Bulls and the Nets. How should we feel about this team now knowing theres only 3 weeks left before the NBA Playoffs begin and the team has injuries to several players specifically key players and now the Celtics now have shown if they have any chance of getting beyond the 2nd round its because they somehow get matched up with the Milwaukee Bucks. Also with 3 weeks left its time to be focusing on the standings and making moves to think about the playoff matchups. The Celtics sit in the 6th seed and are fighting to avoid falling into the 7 through 10 spots as that would make them get into the play in tournamet and would force a potential 1st round matchup with Philly or Brooklyn at this point. Which matchup should the Celtics be aiming for. We discuss with our special guest Mike Dynon (@MikeDynon on twitter, Writer for RedsArmy.com
