Boston fans can’t be happy with their team’s latest results. The Celtics managed 1 win in 5 tries out West, and they needed OT against the sad-sack Suns to get there. While they deserve kudos for their second-ranked defense (only the surprising Grizzlies are better), the Celtics’ kids have to find their collective scoring touch.. 7-6. Previous: 8th. Boston celtics. 10. team. 18

77. A splendid OT win over an excellent Bucks squad is the highlight of the Clippers’ season to date. What’s more, <a rel=. 7-5. . Los Angeles Clippers. 9. team

Previous: 10th. Philadelphia 76ers. 8. team. 93. After their monster trade with the T’Wolves, I don’t know how to rank this team. How is Jimmy Butler going to fit in? Who knows? The 76ers look short of shooting unless Jimmy or <a rel=. 8-6

7-4. . Memphis grizzlies. 7. team. 211. The Grizzlies veterans, particularly <a rel=

team. 29. The Spurs are elderly and shooting-challenged, so must grind out their offense. However, they held their opponents to under a century in four of their last five games. It may be a contrarian way to win, but Gregg Popovich has never been concerned about following trends. His team needs some signature victories.. 7-4. Previous: 14th. San Antonio spurs. 6
