Magic (36-25) at Celtics (36-26) 4/18

[thestackshow]

4th seed locked, who cares about HCA, im not afraid of the hortford less iso-ball hawks or any of the other bottom feeders.

Rest our starting 5 for the rest of the season.

Lets. Get. Healthy.

[mctyson]

Another year, another division title.

[gar]

Not a real confidence booster; but a win. Now to rest KG and Pierce. Bring back Allen and hopefully Rondo.

Division champs...they've really come a long way from people doubting them making the playoffs, huh?

[southshorematt]

Division Champs! Paul Pierce is the Truth... straight up closer!!!


TP's all around

Who remembers this one? 

Any time Baby goes up for a two-handed dunk, I SWEAR I see this exact thing happening somewhere in my brain. Really, I can't turn it off.

And now that he's in pinstripes, I really started loving that.

I think his flop to get the charge against Bradley was even funnier.

76ers going down in flames has helped with that. But as late as by the end of March, I would have been content with a 7th seed.

Side note but did anyone else here Turico and Brown talk about how David Stern needs to change the seeding in the playoffs because it wouldn't be fair that the Celtics get home court with a worse record?

Pretty surprised they don't know what really happens or that no one could give them the heads up after the fact. It was like a 2 min conversation about it.

By the way Bradley is so average. Only one 3 tonight...

[hpantazo]

we still have to bring it friday, big game for homecourt against the hawks, and we owe them for the debacle we had at the garden last game, even though we won that 5 vs 8 matchup somehow

Horford was cleared to practice. He may be ready for the playoffs.

Yeah Turico was working to full outrage like a fool. Similarly he didn't know a couple other rules properly during the game. You can tell he doesn't bother to really follow the nba. To busy with all the other gigs I.guess.

So did we win the Atlantic outright tonight, or just a share of the title?  ESPN is saying we got "at least a tie for the Atlantic Division title".  Others seem to be saying we have it wrapped up?  Anyone know for sure?

[Fafnir]

Wow Pierce with another monster game 29 points on 14 shots!!

Combine that with 14 assist and only 3 TOs. Plus neither Richardson had much of an impact on the other end against him.

We clinched it. The Knicks could still tie our win total if they win out and we lose out but we have secured the tiebreaker with this win.

We are division champs.
