It’s always good when the full stable of horses is healthy, but in this case it’s especially heart-warming to know that:

A) Paul Pierce’s “I tripped and wiped out while dribbling during shootaround” does not have to enter the pantheon of weird injuries next to Derrick Rose’s “I rolled over while eating an apple and landed on a knife.”

B) Ray Allen’s ankle continues to progress well. One would have to assume he could really use a quick series, so please, Celtics, finish Atlanta in five.

and

C) Avery Bradley is, indeed, a cyborg built entirely of fast-twitch muscles that enable him to recover even after his shoulder pops out and refuses to pop back in.

As I mentioned before in regards to Mr. Allen: The Celtics have a number of nagging injuries, so ending this in Game 5 would probably be for the best.
