Playoff Dates 1st round for Celtics home games

[Greeny]

Are these determined yet?
Bruins down 0 - 2

Hypothetical:
1st game: 4/19 night or 4/20 day *Bruins play if alive 4/19
2nd game: 4/21 or 4/22 night *Bruins play if alive 4/21

NBA looks like they will wait to see if the Bruins drop out of the equation before they plan the Celtics games.

Here is a crazy possiblitiy:
11:05 Red Sox vs. Rangers
1:00/2:00 Bruin vs. Canadiens
8:00 Celtics vs Hawks
Marathon too?

Today was a great sports day for Boston (Celtics beat Hawks, Sox beat Yanks, BC won NCAA Hockey, Bruins unfortunately lost in OT)

That won't compare with 4-21-08

Here's hoping the first game is not the 19th as I Sox tickets that night.....

[Tnerb02]

It will most likely be the 19th.

[dark_lord]

any idea when they will announce the first round dates?

[Chris]

It will most likely be the 19th.

Why do you think that?  I would think the 20th is more likely because of the Bruins game on the 19th.

And this will be the day after what some people might consider a holiday.  The question, how does that compare with the weekend last year where:
-Celtics Season Opener
-Patriots vs. Colts
-There was something else going on that day...

You are probably thinking of the undefeated BC football team's game against Florida State...which of course they lost.

[Amonkey]

Yeah, I think it was the Sox WS (and BC to a lower extent).

[Greeny]

Celtics opening night had the Red Sox represent with the trophy there.

Ellsbury, Wakefield, Delcarmen, Bucholtz and John Henry.
Big Papi and Tito were there on other nights.

During the season, Patriots players were there too.
Bruschi, Maroni and others.

Playoffs should bring out the celebs..both entertainment and atheletes.

This is a great time to be a Boston sports fan.
If the Pats won the SB, we would have been so spoiled.
We expect to win every game in football with the Pats, basketball with the C's, baseball with the Sox.
We are definitely spoiled.

For right now though, im enjoying every minute.

Oh my bad. I thought the Bruins were playing on the 20th. That's a good thing because I have to work on the 19th.

[bostonsportsfan]

It has happened The Bruins not only got their first lead against montreal its over they did it THEY BEAT THE MONTREAL CANADIANS there will NOT be a sweep YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

And I have a concert I want to go to on the 19th.

And I think with the win tonight, the B's made it impossible for the NBA to know whether they have a game or not on the 19th until they have already set the schedule, since they cannot be eliminated until Thursday night at the earliest!
