Their five-game winning streak snapped Sunday by the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Boston Celtics remain a confident bunch. Paul Pierce told NBA.com’s David Aldridge he wants the Miami Heat in the playoffs and believes the Celtics are the team nobody wants to meet.

Are they?

Listen to co-hosts Jay King and Ty Ray with the widget above as they discuss the current state of the Celtics.

Fab said he usually has great awareness of doorways, but clearly this one got away from him.

At the very least, this certainly makes the shitty loss to the Spurs seem considerably less important.

Darko Milicic is leaning toward leaving the Boston Celtics for season and returning to Europe to be with ill mother, league sources tell Y!

All thoughts are with Milicic and his family. Hopefully, his mother’s health improves.

Both of them need to play, especially Melo, who still needs to add several layers of polish. Both of them have no chance to play with the Celtics barring injury. This is an obvious, and good, move.
