- The Boston Celtics have clinched a playoff spot even though they have a sub .500 record at 38-42. The Eastern Conference was definitely not as competitive as the West this year as 3 more sub .500 teams are battling for that last spot.
- Expect Amir Johnson to continue to rest until the playoffs. He sprained his ankle back in Brooklyn and has missed 4 games since. Kyle Lowry has returned and has looked good.
- Isaiah Thomas has been nursing an injury as of late, but has still been playing great. In fact he is among a small group of players in the conversation for the Sixth Man of the Year award. Toronto's Lou Williams is also in that group. Thomas, as as Marcus Smart might be seeing limited minutes to get them rested up for the Playoffs as the Celtics will have a tough first round. Likely playing either Atlanta or Cleveland.

Many of the bands that come out of Boston are influenced by traditional Irish instruments and musical styles, one of the most popular of the celtic-punk genre is the Dropkick Murphys.
