The next 10 games will obliterate our lottery chances.

Counting the Orlando game which we just won the schedule is...

Magic
@76ers
Kings
Mavericks
@Bucks
Spurs
@Suns
@Lakers
@Kings
@Jazz

Literally everyone of those bolded games is an easily winnable game. Unless Danny blows it up completely soon we will be flirting with the 8th seed.

Nope, i disagree. At worst we finish .500 and pick up a game or two on the field.

We didn't make up a huge amount during our massive losing skid because everyone else was also facing the western conference.

I bet if you look at the 76ers and Magic's schedule, they'll have a lot of winnable games coming up. Same for the Bobcats, Knicks, Cavs and the rest of the east.

I think you severely underestimate how much it takes to gain on a team that's 5 games ahead of you, particular in a 10 game span.

On the bright side today's game helped RR's trade value.

I think you underestimate how beatable we are ourselves. We've lost to the Bucks twice.

I don't know if it will "obliterate our chances at the lottery," but I'd desperately like to see our team go on a little winning streak and play .500 ball for the rest of the season. 

Unfortunately, I missed today's game (completely spaced out on the early start), but the box score says that Rondo looked good.  Continued good play from him would obviously be huge for the rest of the season.  We need him back.

I highly doubt the C's have any chance of making the playoffs, but I sure would be ecstatic if they did

The C's barely beat an equally bad Orlando team today.  I wouldn't get too worked up if I was a 'tanker', you'll likely still get your coveted pick.

They are also all games we can easily lose.

It's great to see the Captain getting healthy, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. We're still a lousy team.

[cman88]

Everyone of those games is pretty loseable as well though...just because we barely beat a bad magic team doesnt mean we are all of a sudden good.

I also expect ainge to make some moves soon unloading some of our guys. Probably bass

[BigAlTheFuture]

I'd say we lose to the Sixers, Kings twice, and Jazz. Only see us beating the Bucks.

Rondo finally comes out with a strong performance, and this is what people are fixated about? Seriously?

[tstorey_97]

The Celtics are "three off the bottom" of the NBA in
Points per game
FG %
3 PT %

As Rondo improves, they will improve, but, 10 points a game? 

I remain, as many Celtic's fans, conflicted. Enjoy some wins or get that freaking lottery pick.

Orlando is not a good team and the schedule in March is littered with teams that have more firepower than our guys.

[LarBrd33]

Only 6 games until the trade deadline.  Hold your breathe.

exactly. DA trades away bass and bradley and maybe rondo and green we wont win another game this year.

Im fixated on Banner 18, that is all I care about.
