Creepy coincidence: Both teams lost to the Orlando Magic, both Magic teams with a dominant big man.</p>

On pace yes but so were the Bulls. We have identical records right now. (we had our second loss a game later than the bulls did)</p>

My friend was showing me some ESPN statistics...anyway they have the Celtics making the playoffs at 55%, winning the championship at like 23% and that they'll go 72-10 at 1.001001110101010110% or something close to it. Thought it was funny.

i wonder how they come up with those numbers anyways... who really has time in a legit job to predict the probability of the Celtics winning 70 games when we haven't even hit Christmas?</p>
