BOSTON (AP) — After five straight wins in this post-season, the Boston Celtics are looking to continue their winning ways against the Washington Wizards tonight. The Celtics finished off the Chicago Bulls with four straight in the first round, and earned a double-digit win over the Wizards in the opener of the East semifinals.
In the night’s other game, Golden State, the West’s top seed, is playing on eight days’ rest as it opens its semifinal matchup with Utah. The Jazz are coming off a Game 7 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday night.
