    C's To Begin Latest West Coast Trip in 27 Years
    PHOENIX – The Boston Celtics will do something tonight that they haven’t done in 27 years. That is, they’ll take the court for a regular-season game on the West Coast on March 26 or later.

Every year since that season, the schedule makers have sent Boston out west either in mid-late February (most often) or in ..

They did exactly that. Despite getting dominated territorially in the final two periods, BC limited Harvard to mostly lower quality chances, played pretty sound defense, and used their freakish skill going forward to do enough to win the game. Now they will have to elevate their play once again in a one off game ..

The drama and spectacle sits as one of the few unmatched sporting ev..
