Goal No. 4? ``Get out of the first round,'' he said. ``We've got 10 goals. I'll let you know week by week.'' The Celts won't know until tonight whether they will host Indiana or Philadelphia beginning this weekend. The former is a game ahead of the latter, but the 76ers hold the tiebreaker between the two. So if the Sixers beat Atlanta and Indy falls to Chicago tonight, Allen Iverson will be coming to the FleetCenter. Any other outcome will have the Pacers on a Boston-bound flight. </div> The C's have met three goals so far, still seven to go.

"Iverson and Webber would be tough. Reggie would be tough. You never know with him. But I don't want to say anything bad about either team." While we'll have to wait until tonight to discover the identity of the Celtics' opponent, we already know when Game 1 of the series will take place, thanks to the scheduling folks at the networks. The game will be Saturday night at 8, on ESPN.</div> Ricky is confident that the Celtics will take care of business.

With Jersey's win over Washington, the Cavaliers have to beat Toronto tonight and hope the Celts beat the Nets in Boston. So did any Cavs offer financial incentives to the C's for a win? ``LeBron offered me about one-fourth of his Nike deal,'' cracked Paul Pierce [news]. ``You know, I'll take that and retire.'' </div> Bulpett's game story for last night's game. http://celtics.bostonherald.com/celtics/vi...379&format=text
