NBA Standings Watch: Celtics stumble through tough week

C's hovering at .500

This past week has been rough for the Boston Celtics. The 24-point blowout loss in Atlanta Tuesday night, the first time all season this team has lost by more than ten points, was bad enough. The pair of losses that preceded it sting even more.

A listless Celtics squad gave away what should have been a surefire victory in Brooklyn, giving the Nets their third win of the season. That almost counts as two losses. Not only does it count against Boston's record, but they handed a win to a team that owes them a draft pick.
