Pacers potential playoff opponents preview: Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics have Indianapolis native and former Butler basketball coach Brad Steven leading their charge. He is one of the best coaches in the NBA and has the Boston Celtics sitting second in the Eastern Conference with just a handful of games to go. They have clinched a top-two spot in the postseason. For the Pacers to meet Boston in the first round, some craziness would have to happen in the standings that would involve the Pacers falling to the seven seed. But it could still happen if certain combos of Washinton/Miami/Milwaukee wins out. So even though it is improbable, the series is possible and worth talking about.
