Last season, the Boston Celtics swept the Washington Wizards, beating them in all four meetings.
When the Celtics came to town last season, the Verizon Center was awash in a sea of green, because there appeared to be more Celtics fans than Wizards fan.
The Wizards no longer had the Big Brazilian, Nene Hilario, who battled down low with the Celtics’ Jae Crowder, whom Randy Wittman may or may not have called soft.
On Wednesday night, Crowder was on the injured list due to a sprained ankle, while Al Horford was out due to a concussion.
