Celtics Take on Clippers at the Garden

Celtics Take on Clippers at the GardenAfter tonight’s game against the Clippers, the Celtics will have either created an all time low, or stopped just short of disaster. Despite playing close and competitive games for much of the season, the Celtics are in danger of losing their 14th straight game tonight.

If the Celtics go on to lose, it will be the longest losing streak in this storied franchise history.

The Clippers come into tonight’s game with a 23-22 record while the Celtics own a hard to swallow 12-33 record. As the folks over at Yahoo Sports point out…

Boston has fallen to the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, going 2-20 since a season-high five game winning streak from Dec. 9-16. One of the losses was a 100-77 defeat to the Los Angeles Clippers on Dec. 27 at Staples Center.

After successfully fighting off the flu like symptoms that limited him earlier in the week, Delonte West is expected to start opposite of Sam Cassell for tonight’s game.

Tonight’s game coverage is available on Fox Sports Net New England, with the Celtics Tonight pre-game show beginning at 7:00PM. Actual game coverage is expected to begin sometime between 7:30 and 7:45PM also on FSN.
