Celtics vs Knicks Preview


And in the biggest non rivalry in regular season history the Boston Celtics take on the resurgent Knicks in what should be a battle for the ages.... or probably a decent regular season game.

Boston goes for an 11th consecutive victory Wednesday night as it heads into Madison Square Garden looking to halt the Knicks' longest winning streak in more than 16 years.

So you have to give it to the Knicks for at least making some noise in the NBA that's positive and not Isiaih driven.

Here are the starters:

Depth Chart

Boston (PPG)New York (PPG)
PG R. Rondo 11.2R. Felton 18.4
SG R. Allen 16.6L. Fields 10.6
SF P. Pierce 18.0W. Chandler 17.3
PF K. Garnett 15.5D. Gallinari 15.3
C S. O'Neal 11.2A. Stoudemire 26.2


Boston comes into tonight a little gimpy and injured, but whatever, we have seen that already this year. I expect Rondo and Shaq to play and be healthy after a couple days off and that should really help out a lot. The thing the Celtics have and that the Knicks don't is a tough big man. I love Amare but I don't see him playing physical enough to knock KG, Sha, or even Semih off their respective games. Raymond Felton has had a hell of a year and I don't think Rondo doesn't notice that. He likes humbling people and I'm sure he's going to do everything in his power to make Felton have a long night. I see Rondo having a super aggressive night and having the young defense collapse and him to have a close to career night in assists.

Celtics 109- 101
Tommy Award: Rondo
