Rondo and Sully went down for the season, and the Celtics rallied. Now they will have to find a way to do it again, as Barbosa has been lost for the season and they are coming off a loss to the worst team in the NBA (Bobcats).
The Bulls have been dealing with a ton of injuries of their own (not including Rose). Every player from their starting lineup has missed some kind of time over the last 3 weeks.
I have to admit I am very nervous about this game. The Bulls can have a very good low post game when everyone is healthy, and Deng has given Pierce problems in the past. Saying that, I just can't count out a Doc Rivers team that has their backs against the wall. It is going to take a huge effort (like the one against the Nuggets), but the Celtics are a very good home team (19-9), and I think they figure out a way to get it done.
This is the last meeting between these two teams this year (obviously not including playoffs).
Celtics win 95-91
Tommy Award: Bradley
Game starts at 7:30pm
