Celts Hang On to Beat Cavs

Yeah. Yeah. Celts beat the Cleveland Cavaliers at home.  No big deal.  But troubling thing about this win is that the Celts had a 19 point lead at the end of the third quarter and had to hang on for dear life to escape with a 103-100 win.  I guess this is progress as the Celtics have gotten out to big leads in their previous three losses only to be nipped in the end by the other team.  Oh, you glass half empty people will say those other teams weren't as bad as the Cleveland Cavaliers.  Details. Shmeetails.  A win is a win is a win, especially after a three-game losing streak.  In all honesty, I didn't watch this game as it was so early in the day and I had better things to do than to watch a mid-season NBA game at mid-day on a Saturday.  Welcome to the NBA grind.  I can sympathize with those who say that NBA basketball doesn't get interesting until the playoff (and then not only until the fourth quarter!).
