Celtics 'shutting down' Garnett, likely until playoffs
OchoCinco:
WALTHAM, Massachusetts (AP) -- The Boston Celtics are "shutting down" injured star Kevin Garnett because of concerns over his sore right knee.
Coach Doc Rivers announced after practice Tuesday that the team would be "shutting down" their star forward after Garnett experienced continued soreness in the knee, first injured on Feb. 19 at Utah.
Rivers said Garnett would probably play the last few games of the season to prepare for the playoffs.
"After watching him move today, we're just going to shut him down," Rivers said. "It probably won't be for the year. He'll probably play by the end, last couple of games, or last three games. It's just not progressing the way we anticipated it would progress."
Damn, yall are gunna make it too easy for the Crabeliers

Celts are done, we all knew it was short term when they got KG and Allen and they got their title so props to them but they are done now. Cavs would beat them this year even w/ KG at 100% IMO but now it will be really easy for Cavs. Cavs and Lakers in Finals, man that is gonna be amazing.

I wouldn't stick a fork in the Celtics just yet; if KG gets in a few games b4 the playoffs and they get a relatively easy first round match-up, they should be fine. Honestly, the Magic are gonna be tough to beat as well.
Its amazing though---------who would've thought the Cavs would be the favourite in the east heading into this season???
