The Cavaliers and Celtics play their 4th and final game of the regular season, with the Cavs looking to take 3 of 4 - and 3 straight - from the Cs. While many in the press and fans alike have dismissed the Celtics, they are still 19 games over .500 and extremely dangerous.
Unfortunately for the Celtics, the Cavaliers still have a major carrot worth playing for - homecourt throughout the playoffs and Finals. With their magic number to clinch the NBA's best record at 1, a win by the Cavs OR a loss by the Lakers and the Cavaliers can lock up homecourt throughout. Needless to say, the Celtics would like nothing better than to delay that celebration at least one more game..
While Anderson Varejao is still a question mark after missing the last 3 games, J.J. Hickson has been solid averaging 14.4 points and 8.8 rebounds over his last 5.
While Cleveland comes in having won 9-of-10, the Celtics have lost 3 straight, including a 109-104 OT loss at home to Houston on Friday Night...
