PostSportsPlus: The Celtics and Bruins are poised to crush New York’s playoff dreams and add to Boston’s trophy taunts
Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum led the Celtics to the NBA’s best record coming out of the All-Star break.The Bucks and Sixers are formidable competition in the Eastern Conference, and it is no guarantee the Celtics will make it past either one.
What makes it worse for New York, though, is the Knicks or Nets could end up playing the Celtics early in the playoffs, depending how the seeding shakes out. With both local teams currently above the play-in line, the chances of a first-round collision are not massive, but it could happen.
With only eight losses in their first 56 games, the Bruins have a commanding lead in the Atlantic Division and the Eastern Conference.Falling short in the conference finals again would leave a bitter taste for Rangers fans who were happy to be there last year, but will not settle this time around. The Devils, maybe, could live with it a little easier as an up-and-coming team that hasn’t gotten to the playoffs in a long time.
