Barring an Atlanta Braves-like collapse, huh? How about a REDSOX-like collapse. I guess that’s more relatable (and I’m from New England …)

Worst record among division leaders…in the worst division in the NBA. Boston isn’t going anywhere.

While having a 3 game lead with 10 games remaining is a great spot, I think to assume the C’s win the division is still a big leap. Boston is in the middle of a brutal stretch (even worse than NY) and they end the season with Atlanta, Miami and Milwaukee. And its probable that each of those teams will still be playing for something meaningful. Not to mention Boston has a stretch of 4 games in 5 days next week ending in a showdown in New York, and you can see that Boston still has a lot of work to do before clinching anything.
