Preview: Boston Celtics vs. Brooklyn Nets

Tonight, the Boston Celtics take on the Brooklyn Nets following their important win against the Indiana Pacers just last night. It was Kyrie Irving hitting a game-winner with about 0.5 seconds left to put the Celtics on top 114-112. This gave the Celtics the fourth spot in the Eastern Conference currently and a tie-breaker against the Pacers going forward. Now, they have got to get right back out there taking on the Nets in front of a rowdy Saturday night crowd.

The Nets are fighting for their own playoff spot as they sit in the seventh seed in the East, but they are bunched up in the six through ten seed range all within three games of each other.
