WALTHAM, Mass. – There will be a lot on the line Tuesday night in Toronto – more than many understand.
Jae Crowder called the impending matchup between the Celtics and the Raptors, who are separated by only one game in the Eastern Conference standings, “a big one.” Amir Johnson concurred, saying it’s “a big game in the East.”
With a win, Boston will pull even with Toronto not only in the win-loss column for the second seed in the East, but also in the head-to-head series between the two teams. Should the Celtics accomplish that goal, a domino effect could be set into motion.
