The playoff race in the Eastern Conference is heating up with just under a month left in the NBA Regular Season. The Celtics have 13 games left on their schedule and right now have made many believe they have a legit shot to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals and possibly to the NBA Finals. The last 2 questions for some fans have been. Can the Celtics win it all and obviously will they win it all. The Celtics this week in a big week for Celtics Nation had a great chance to answer that first question of can the Celtics win it all. As they took on the Dallas Mavericks at TD Garden on the night that featured the Boston Celtics retiring Kevin Garnetts #5 jersey to the rafters and featured several members of the 2008 NBA Championship team including both Paul Pierce and Ray Allen appearing showing the issue between Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen is officially past them. Other players to make the trip to Boston included Kendrick Perkins, Eddie House, James Posey, Glen Davis, Leon Powe and of course Brian Scalabrine. Did the Celtics manage to win on the Big Day for the Big Ticket or did they let the Big Ticket and the fans down in the Big Moment? 3 days later the Celtics traveled to California to take on Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors in a potential NBA Finals matchup if the Celtics reach the finals. This match was the match that had many Celtics fans saying if you can beat them you can beat anyone in the Western Conference with the way the Golden State Warriors have been playing. So did the Celtics manage to knock off the Warriors? Did they lose but manage to atleast keep the game close meaning that if they do make it to the finals it can go either way? Or did the Warriors made a statement that the Celtics dont deserve to be on the same court with them when they are healthy? We will discuss this with our special guest Warren Shaw (@ShawSportsNBA on twitter) Host of NBA Baseline and Dope Interviews.
