Nice blog regarding the famous, or infamous as I like to put it, Texas Triangle Teams. Boston is going to come down to earth real soon facing these 3 elite teams. Nice to read comments from the fans too. http://my.nba.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5700000861
^ Over the last ten seasons (since 1998-99), teams are 29-82 (.261) on the Texas Triangle (three consecutive road games vs. the three Texas teams) trip. The last team to go 3-0 is the 2001-02 Kings (Nov. 27-30, 2001). Since the Mavericks joined the league before the 1980-81 season, teams are 245-439 (.358) in the Triangle. The Celtics are 19-17 (.528) all-time in the Triangle. The last time they did the Triangle was during the 2002-03 season and they went 0-3 (Jan. 10-13, 2003). The last time they went 3-0 was during the 1986-87 season (Feb. 18-21, 1987). The only other team doing the Triangle this season is the Sonics. They will do it April 8-11. Courtesy of STATS LLC.
i was telling my buddy they'd be luck to get out of here with a 1-2 record... looks like the rockets and mavs will have to take care of business.
