The Boston Celtics are absolutely on fire. Via Boston.com:
The Celtics are coming for a top seed in the Eastern Conference, and no one seems able to stop them at the moment.
Boston (42-28) currently sits fourth overall in the East with 12 games to play. Though they might be too far behind the conference-leading Miami Heat (four games) to claim the No. 1 seed, they have a legitimate chance at gaining the two games of ground on the Milwaukee Bucks for the second seed.
No matter where they end up, though, the Celtics could be a very tough out in the postseason. One could make the claim they’re the best team in the NBA right now.
