Sure they've lost six of their last ten, but the Celtics are still 8-1 in the division, 19-2 at home and, oh yeah, the NBA champions. The Nets travel to Boston, where the weather is as cold as Kevin Garnett's demeanor. Boston has been hit by injuries to Kendrick Perkins and Tony Allen just like the Nets have with Yi Jianlian. Vince Carter (hip) didn't practice Tuesday and is a game-time decision.
