I'm a big Celtics fan and have been one for a long time (ever since Paul Pierce was drafted in '98). NO, I'M NOT A BAND WAGONER. I road with the Celtics through their gloomy years and I'm still riding with them today. The problem lately for the defending champs is that they have been plagued by injury. At first, it was just Kevin Garnett, Brian Scalabrine and Tony Allen who were out with injuries, but after this past weekend, Rajon Rondo and Glen "Big Baby" Davis have joined the list. Now, that's going to push more work onto Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. I don't know how they will do without Rondo at point guard and this is a very critical time in the season. Using last years playoffs as proof, it's obvious that having home court advantage all the way to the NBA Finals is very important, and the race is close for that spot between the Los Angeles Lakers, The Cleveland Cavaliers, and The Boston Celtics. I believe that for my C's to return to the Finals and win another championship, they're going to need that home court advantage. I'm hoping for the best. Heal those injuries!!!!
