First Place Celtics?

Check the standings fans--your 16-time World Champions are now atop their division. Sure, it's probably the worst division in professional sports, but, hey, take it where you can.

In what is becoming a pleasantly recurring theme, when Paul Pierce, Wally Szczerbiak and Ryan Gomes score in double figures, we win. Pierce threw down 34 (while guarding one of the toughest guys in the NBA in Michael Redd). Szczerbiak had 21 and Gomes added 15 in the 111-98 win, that might be enough to re-boost the confidence of this young group after some abysmal losses.
