Herald West test awaits C's
FL's Take: The Celtics have a very tough week ahead. The Spurs are coming off 3 losses, are fighting for playoff positioning, and will be highly motivated. The Rockets are looking for their 23rd win in a row and have been playing inspired basketball. The Mavs are fighting for their playoff lives and are highly motivated. The Hornets are also fighting for their playoff lives. All of these teams have been winning with defense and the Celtics will need to bring their defensive intensity and come ready to play or it could be a long week.
Rockets streak into 1st place
FL's Take: I watched this game and the Rockets are tough. They were unconscious from beyond the arc. They are also playing good defense. The Celtics will have their hands full, playing in the second of back to back games and facing a very motivated Rockets team looking for win #23.

No complaints about Mr Bowen here
FL's Take: I really wouldn't want Bruce Bowen on the Celtics. I am convinced that he is a dirty player and we don't need that on the Celtics. He fits right in with the Spurs though as they have several players who don't mind taking cheap shots.

Celtics 17 Celtics turnaround and playoff position
FL's Take: I was a Celtics fan when the Celtics drafted Larry Bird and remember the turn around in his rookie season. This one is even more exciting as it has been so long since the last championship.

Houston Chronicle Landry could return vs Celtics
FL's Take: Of course. Players always make miracle come backs for the Celtics. And players have career games against them too. And teams play their best game of the season only to go on a losing streak afterwards.

MySA Spurs March gets tougher with Celtics
FL's Take: Spurs March gets tougher? Try Spurs, Rockets, Mavs, Hornets, Sixers, Suns, Hornets. Now, that is tough!!!

Star Tribune Lottery or no, Wolves won't mail it in
FL's Take: I really love Big Al and Gomes still. They have too much integrity to mail it in. I would love to get either one of them back in Boston. Gomes will be a free agent this off season and I imagine he would love to come back home. Danny should make an offer.

FL's Take: Kobe Bryant is not an MVP. He doesn't have the character and he doesn't make the players around him better.
