Suns Hammer Celtics

This is one I definitely should've recapped before it was played as most of what I thought came to fruition. Celts just blown out in this one.  Once word came in that KG and Davis were out and Rondo was gimpy, they never had a shot.  The good thing is this is really the first blowout of the season.  Even the Flakers got smoked by Denver and Phoenix the other night.

Those losses in Golden State and the Clippers, really hurt now.  2 games they really could've used.  If the Celtics win it all this year they'll have to be fighting for homecourt throughout the year.  That was one of the beauties of 2008- they had the best record the entire year and were only really challenged by Detroit for a part of the season.  This year it's the Flakers, Cavs, Magic and possibly even the Hawks.

That Christmas game seems like ages ago.  C's need another 10 game win streak as they've now fallen into a tie (Loss-wise) with the Cavs.
