12 game winning streak so far. Think they will come any close to the Rockets' 22? Pacers nearly ended it tonight if it weren't for PP. Next games: Thu 11 @ Washington Fri 12 vs New Orleans Mon 15 vs Utah Wed 17 @ Atlanta Fri 19 vs Chicago Sun 21 vs New York Tue 23 vs Philadelphia Thu 25 @ LA Lakers Fri 26 @ Golden State Sun 28 @ Sacramento Tue 30 @ Portland I'm thinking either a loss at NO or LA.
I wouldnt exactly discount Atlanta and New York too, but hopefully it ends in Washington or New Orleans.
New Orleans hasn't been playing great... I'm going to say their streak will be stopped at Utah. If not then, then L.A.
I'm thinkin LA takes care of business at home in an emotionally charged affair. They lost the championship, that battle is done but they probably want to pretend a game in the regular season will make up for it... in their hearts? I'm still not seeing another team that I think can handle Boston in the east come playoff time barring any major trades. Hopefully the Rox will meet them at the top come June, but another Celtics Lakers matchup would be fun to watch.
I guess their streak will end as early as at Atlanta or no later than L.A. If they play at Utah, that would probably their most difficult obstacle. Luckily it was their home game, Utah sucks at playing road games.
Never seen a team win a ring and come back this focused and pumped up for the new season, at least not since the Bulls of the first 3-peat. This Celtics team is a rare animal. It will be a great series when they play an improved Cavs team this year. Should they win they will play another improved team from seasons past in the Lakers. If the Celts stay healthy for a couple of years, we may have another Gold and Green rivalry on the horizon.
If my memory serves me right,the Wiz beat 'em twice last season,so the streak they're rolling on right now will be snapped by the Wiz.If the Wiz couldn't finish the job,just hand it over to Utah or New Orleans.I bet the streak ain't gonna reach 15 although it's already 12 wins straight. Hope it ain't gonna let me down.It was a close game today b/t Boston and Indiana though,it's really pissed when Paul Pierce hit that clutch 3. If the Pacers did to 'em again,they woulda needed introspection.
Same here,buddy.But I really expected a miracle at that moment,the Pacers did it to 'em a while ago,eventually it failed me again. What's your take on this question? who's gonna snap their streak?
