Since I am a Celtics fanatic I figure why not make my first real post one about the boys in green. As the all star break approaches the celtics are looking to hobble into the break with a win over New Jersey on Wednesday night. I like that we have them as our last game because it should give our startes a good rest considering they’re going to be playing in the game on Sunday as the best all star bench ever assembled.
It’s no question that injuries have plagued the celtics for a while now. Our biggest key injury right now, i believe, is Delonte. Once he comes back from his broken wrist you now have a true point guard to back up Rondo instead of Nate acting like he can handle the ball. Nate is a pure shooter, a 2 guard, and with West in the lineup it allows him to run off screens and get open without the ball like him and his little powerful black legs were meant to do. Besides that, Shaq coming back is vital as well.
The celtics with a win on Wednesday will go into the break with a 40-14 record and 1st place atop the Eastern Conference. The Heat will of course finish behind them.
