I know  we will get clarity tomorrow night/Thursday morning, but what do we think?  Game 1 on Saturday?  Traveling up from NY for it, so trying to get a gauge on the timeframe with the holiday weekend and all.

Thanks!!

Thats the million dollar question right now. Unfortunately really impossible to say, i found this site but doesnt tell who will be playing when. Wish they had seeding next to slots as I imagine thats already determined but it'll definitely be Saturday or Sunday

So logic dictates that Celtics game 1 will be Sunday and Game 2 Tuesday.
Bruins have home games on Monday and Wednesday so that eliminates a home game for the Celtics.
In theory Saturday game 1 is possible but I believe thats too long of a break in between games.. At the very least game 2 is definitely going to be Tuesday.

My guess is Saturday and Tuesday for games 1 and 2.  Often times you'll see two off days between games in the early parts of the playoffs.  The NBA wants as few as games possible on any individual day, so that they can maximize TV exposure for each series.
