You are correct, if we win and Sixers lose we get the division. Unfortunately though, a loss for the Sixers would be a win for the Pacers.
Not saying it will happen, but a nationally televised game vs the Knicks is historically the most likely situation for a Rondo triple-double.
Knicks are very short-handed. Boston should win this game comfortably.

It's going to be very hard for New York to retain it's defense with Tyson Chandler defending Garnett. Pulling Tyson out of the paint will leave their interior defense (and rebounding) exposed. Especially with those smaller lineups with Melo at PF alongside three guards. Landry Fields cannot defend Pierce either. Pierce is too strong, too skilled and too smart for a defender like Fields who does well as an over-sized two but struggles when pitted against legit SFs (especially a power three like Pierce). Pierce should get a lot of joy against Fields. It'll be very tough for this Knicks team to hang in there against the Celtics.

Didn't even think about this - TP.Yet another advantage of having KG at Center...Tyson Chandler was perhaps the biggest reason to give me pause tonight.Thank You, KG - for your move to Center.
