Since the last show the Celtics played 5 games. 4 which featured opponents who were not seated in one of the 16 playoff spots coming into the 5 game stretch. The Celtics welcomed the Nuggets then 2 nights later started a home and home series with the Orlando Magic playing in Boston then 2 nights later the Celtics were in Orlando. Then 2 nights after that game in Orlando the Celtics played the New York Knicks in New York which was the first night of a back to back which would see the Celtics play the Pistons the next night back at TD Garden in Boston. The Celtics began this stretch sitting in the 5th seed in the Eastern Conference right behind the Chicago Bulls for the 4th seed. So what did the Celtics do on what would be the last of their easy stretch that Daniel Camacho mentioned a month ago before the Celtics have to go at it with Lebron and the Cavs, Demarcus Cousins and the Kings and old friejds Paul Pierce, Doc Rivers and the LA Clippers. Are the Celtics still sitting the the 5th seed or did they manage to take advantage of the last easy stretch they got and rise up in the east. Or did they choke and fall down in the standings. Your Celtics Talk Crew will discuss that also whats the latest on the NBA Trade Deadline outlook for the Celtics with just 2 weeks exactly left before the Trade Deadline arrives. Jon Shames of HoopsHabit will be our guest for this show.
