WASHINGTON — Unlike Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, the Celtics acted yesterday as if they wouldn’t mind a trip back to DC in the very near future.
Either that, or maybe they’re big fans of the area’s cherry blossom festivals.
In any case, the Celts shot their way into continued mystery as to the identity of their first-round playoff opponent. Pinned to the No. 2 seed, they could have locked the Wizards into eighth in the East with a win last night. Instead, they fell, 113-101, keeping alive the possibility that Washington, Miami or Milwaukee could be visiting the Garden this weekend.
