Viewing Alert

Hey gang --

I know it's been a couple of weeks since I last posted. Once the regular season ends, I'll have a post explaining why.

In the meantime, you can catch the Celtics on Sunday at 3:30 p.m. Eastern on ABC. The game is in Miami against the Heat, and could be the difference between a second-round playoff series in Boston and a second-round playoff series on the road in South Beach. By virtue of its three wins over Miami earlier in the season, Boston has the tiebreaker between the two teams. Both sit at 55-24. A win for the Cs would put their magic number at one -- meaning that either a Boston win or a Miami loss in the season's final two games would give Boston the second seed in the East and home-court advantage over the Heat if the teams were to meet in the Eastern semis. A Heat victory means that they control their own destiny, in terms of playoff seeding, with a magic number of two.
