Boston Celtics Clinch Improbable Playoff Berth
青賽以黑馬之姿晉級季後

In the Eastern Conference, anything is possible.
Despite starting the season 20-33, the Boston Celtics are on their way to the
playoffs after the Brooklyn Nets were blown out by the Chicago Bulls, 113-86,
Monday night.
Owning a 1.5-game lead and the tiebreaker over the Nets, Boston is safely in
following a one-year postseason absence.
And even though a first-round matchup with the Cleveland Cavaliers likely
awaits, Celtics play-by-play man Sean Grande reiterated that Boston has yet
to solidify its seed with two games remaining:
在東區，什麼事都有可能發生
儘管青賽球賽開局打得顛跛（20勝33敗）
但有些隊伍就是有著迷人的進步曲線
台北時間20150414上午，在公牛以118-86剪破籃網後
青賽確定晉級季後
(因為對籃網有1.5場的勝差及tiebreaker)
雖然青賽第一輪十之八九要對騎士
他們家主播還是不厭其煩的重申
最後兩場球對賽爾提克種子序的影響：

It's pretty simple now. The Celtics lose their last two, and the Pacers win
their last two, Boston gets Atlanta. Anything else..Cleveland.

現在事情很簡單。
若賽爾提克最後兩場都輸，而且溜馬最後兩場皆贏
那第一輪就對老鷹
任何其他的情況，則對騎士

The Celtics—who have won four straight following back-to-back victories over
the resting Cleveland Cavaliers—will close out their schedule with a home
game against the Toronto Raptors and a road meeting with the sixth-seeded
Milwaukee Bucks.
While the Celtics punched their ticket on a night they were idle, their
late-season run wasn't facilitated solely by a woeful East.
Yes, the sub-.500 struggles consuming the race for the East's seventh and
eighth seeds provided an extra boost, but the Celtics have been objectively
excellent since acquiring Isaiah Thomas at the trade deadline.
Dating back to Feb. 20, Boston is 18-11, which trails only the Cavaliers'
19-7 record for the best mark among Eastern Conference teams in that span.
The only other clubs with superior win totals are the Golden State Warriors,
San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Clippers, Houston Rockets and Utah Jazz.
On the efficiency spectrum, Boston has touted the league's ninth-best defense
since the trade deadline and benefited from an offense that's produced at
league-average rates commensurate with the Chicago Bulls and Dallas
Mavericks.
For a team Thomas believed was "one of the worst teams in the NBA" upon
arriving in Boston, according to MassLive.com's Jay King, that's remarkable.
從二月20日以來，綠軍18勝11敗
在東區儘次於騎士的19勝7負
同時期全聯盟也只有勇士、馬刺、快艇、火箭、爵士戰績更佳
以效率的觀點，在自由球員交易截止後
綠軍的防守效率為聯盟第九
進攻效率與公牛及小牛一樣，則為聯盟均值
根據 MassLive.com 的 Jay King 報導
當初 Isiah Thomas 來到波士頓還覺得
進了聯盟數一數二的大爛隊
對照現在青賽篤定晉級
且 IT 還破天荒有季後賽可打
波士頓，你怎叫人不驚奇呢？
－－
恭喜青賽 恭喜安吉 恭喜 Coach Brad
季後賽見
