Are the Boston Celtics done chasing the East’s top seed?

With the second seed likely locked, what comes next?

While there might still be a mathematical path to the Eastern Conference’s top seed, for all intents and purposes, the Boston Celtics are out of the running to have homecourt advantage through the 2023 NBA playoffs.

Does this mean the Celtics are about to take their foot off the gas for the rest of their 2022-23 campaign? Or does Boston still need to bank a win or two to avoid slipping to third place with the Sixers evidently pushing hard to close  regular season?

The host of the CLNS Media “Garden Report” podcast, Bobby Manning, decided to talk us through the outlook ahead of the Sixers tilt on a recent episode.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what he had to say about the Celtics’ seeding outlook as we wrap up the regular season.
