Will the Cs make the playoffs?

[SHAQATTACK]

Utah is playing good

The game is in Utah .....


Gobert could negate Big Al  or an inside game.

I'm predicting a Jazz victory over Hornets ......Hornets fans are worried......they should be

This would be a help for the Celtics cause.

Think I was wrong earlier - the Celtics are proving me wrong and if they keep doing that, they will make the playoffs. (not saying that proving me wrong is their motivation)

A closer assessment of the schedules and form shows they can.

[tarheelsxxiii]

Agreed, but they have 3 more road games. And homes games include atlanta, Toronto and houston.

[HeadDoctorJ]

Milwaukee and Indiana miss the playoffs.

Charlotte gets the 8th seed.

Miami gets the 7th seed.

Cs get the 6th seed and beat either Toronto or Chicago in six games.

Then Cs lose in five games to Cleveland in the 2nd round.

If you forced me to bet right now I'd put my $ on the C's making the playoffs. Last week I would have said no, but these guys keep chugging along.

Also like to say I was hard on CBS early this year but it appears maybe he has figured it out or it wasn't him it was Rondo and Green.

The chances appear to be good.  My money is on Indiana and Boston taking the last two playoff spots in the East.

Celtics , a low talent high energy team are exposing a lot of teams right now ,  teams with better talent and over rated coaches not performing up to snuff.

Lot of GMs must be mad or scratching their heads.

C's games after Philly is brutal .....SMH

Maybe be some set back

Realistically I don't think the C's have the worst schedule ahead out of the 4 teams that compete for those last 2 playoff spots. And don't forget, those last season games against Cleveland and Toronto are very winnable, I expect them to have locked their playoff seeds by then and resting their starters. And of course the C's play every single of their 3 competitors in the remaining games, so their playoff destiny is definitely in their own hands.

Wow, Indy has a really tough schedule the rest of the way. They very well could drop out of the seventh seed and race altogether.

I m no. Expert , but that is my opinion too......their schedule requires Paul George for them to have any chance ......I think they are rushing him back ...for this very reason....

Hornets schedule looks the easiest to me. The only thing is Al being out.

A lot will depend on how much the top teams rest their starters the last week.  If Cleveland is locked into a spot, do they sit LeBron etc..
