Video: Can Boston's "big three" secure the East's top seed?

It might not be Larry Bird, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish, or even Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce that's carrying the Boston Celtics to a six-game winning streak.



But, given Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward, and Marcus Smart (and Daniel Theis, but we seem to have a pattern going) are all out until the postseason if not later, the "big three" of Jason Tatum, Marcus Morris and Terry Rozier have been keeping the Cs in contention for the East's top seed - can they secure it? 

They have exactly six games left in the schedule to pull it off, but if they can keep up what they have been doing, they just might. Watch the video above to see what makes these three so important to the team right now - and to get an idea of what we'll need from them going forward.
