Celtics hands Spurs fourth consecutive victory
I guess the Spurs would have never thought that they will be 4 games down getting so close to the playoffs.
Their last consecutive loss came in the hands of the Celtics, who missed Ray Allen for his second game without action due to an injured ankle.
Boston rallied the current champs 93-91 with Rajon Rondo scoring 20 and Sam Cassell adding 17 for the Celtics, while for the Spurs, Manu Ginobili finished with 32.
This is the Celtics 2nd victory on a 5 game road trip and now they are heading to Houston to face the almighty Rockets who’s inspired play has taking them on a 22 wins luck strike trip, and so far this might be the most expected game of the season before the playoffs, since the Celtics are considered the current best team in the NBA and Houston is on the run for the same title.
Would the Celts take on the Rockets? Hard to say, as both teams are coming inspired, and Houston is eager to end once and for all the negative comments about them and let people know that their strike of victories are not a matter of luck but consistency.
Definitely the Celtics are not the team from a year ago, the addition of all these well paid athletes gave an incredible boost to the team’s performance and just guessing again, I am hoping to see these guys at the finals.
