When will Celtics go into postseason mode and stop trying to win all of their games?

They are a year older. Last year they were 27-27 their last 54 games. What are they thinking? They need to be rested and healthy. They don't need home court.Oh yeah, I have the under of 54.5 too. So I could be a little jaded.

They aren't going to slow it down this year. Home court is of importance I believe

Where is that .500 fade that occured last year?

They won't. Doc said on several interviews home court advantage is very important and might have kept them from winning title last year.

Last year they were just trying to survive in the 2nd half. With the acquisitions of Green, Krstic, and Murphy, the Big 3 will be able to get plenty of rest down the stretch while still being competitive in games. Shaq is probably being saved for the playoffs though
