BOSTON CELTICS

Recap Rewind: After winning their last four games the Celtics have now leapfrogged the Grizzlies in the standings. Umm, shouldn’t someone tell the Celtics that they are supposed to be collecting losses so that they can have a higher chance to win the NBA Draft Lottery this spring?

Notable News: Boston’s win against Houston this week marked the first time that they have won a road game against a team with a winning record... Boston rallied back from a 13-point deficit in the fourth quarter against Houston... Boston held Houston to a season low 13 points in the second quarter of their game... Boston has used 19 different starting line-ups so far this season (one more than last year)... Boston was down five points with 12 seconds remaining in regulation against the Nets and managed to push the game into overtime... Al Jefferson scored a career high 32 points against the Nets... Boston took a season-high 102 shots from the field against New Jersey.

Fast Forward: The Celtics next three games are at home against Houston, Seattle and Chicago.
