Boston Celtics Schedule: January 2009

Enjoy a Boston Celtics schedule filled with exciting match ups in January when you buy Boston Celtics tickets!

Boston Celtics: December Wrap Up
No team had a hotter December than the streaking Boston Celtics, a team that went an impressive 12-3 in the month. Fans with Boston Celtics tickets watched their team tally wins over legit playoff contenders (from both East and West), including the Orlando Magic, Portland Trail Blazers, New Orleans Hornets, Utah Jazz, and Atlanta Hawks. The Boston Celtics hit a bit of a rough patch toward the end of the month, dropping a streak-breaking loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, and Portland Trail Blazers.

Boston Celtics: Team Outlook
The Boston Celtics’ Big Three – Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Ray Allen – continued to dominate the Celtics stat sheets. Fans with Boston Celtics tickets saw point guard Rajon Rondo enjoy a couple of big games throughout the month, leading the team in scoring in games against the Utah Jazz and New York Knicks. Heading into January, there have been rumors of disgruntled point guard Stephon Marbury joining the Boston Celtics, which (if the trade went down) would give the Boston Celtics the star point guard that they lack, relegating Rajon Rondo to a back-up role.

Boston Celtics: January Outlook
The Boston Celtics kicked off the New Year with a win against the lowly Washington Wizards before dropping a shocking loss to division rival New York Knicks. The rest of the Celtics’ January schedule includes heated battles against the Houston Rockets and top-tier Cleveland Cavaliers. Games against the Phoenix Suns, Orlando Magic, Dallas Mavericks, and Detroit Pistons are sure to be hot ticket sellers this month as well.

Boston Celtics: Bouncing Back
Fans with Boston Celtics tickets are still trying to put the shocking 12-point loss to the New York Knicks behind them and would like nothing more than a road win against the sub-.500 Charlotte Bobcats. The Boston Celtics are known to struggle against young, athletic teams, and the ‘Cats are sure to test the road-weary Celtics. The Boston Celtics will then return home to take on the Houston Rockets – a team that the Boston Celtics just barely eked by back in early November.

Boston Celtics: LeBron & the Cavs
Boston Celtics tickets are sure to fly out of the box office as the reigning champion Boston Celtics take on their biggest threat, the Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron James has been playing outside of his mind, and the Cleveland Cavaliers look to have the pieces to dethrone the Boston Celtics this season. Fans with Boston Celtics tickets can expect a closely contested game filled with high-flying emotions and dunks to boot.

Boston Celtics: Seeing Double
In the next four games, the Boston Celtics will face two teams and familiar faces. First, the Boston Celtics will travel to the Great White North to face Chris Bosh, Jermaine O’Neal, Jose Calderon and the Toronto Raptors. Fans with Boston Celtics tickets will then see the Toronto Raptors back in TD Banknorth Garden the next day. Next up, the Boston Celtics will battle the New Jersey Nets at home and then on the road.

Boston Celtics: Suns, Sunny Florida
Come mid-January, Boston Celtics tickets will then showcase a heated match up between the Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns. The Suns’ Shaquille O’Neal will likely pose a problem for the Boston Celtics up front, as the team lacks height and bulk outside of Kendrick Perkins. Veteran Steve Nash may be a bit much for Rajon Rondo to handle on his own and fans with Boston Celtics tickets will be watching this duel closely.

The Boston Celtics then head down to Sunny Florida to face Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat followed by Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic. While the Miami Heat are rising in the East, this should be a W for the Boston Celtics. Enjoying a quiet yet dominating season thus far far, the Orlando Magic are one of the top three teams in the East and will challenge the Boston Celtics for conference supremacy along with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Boston Celtics: Strong Finish
Fans with Boston Celtics tickets expect their team to finish their January schedule strong with wins over the Dallas Mavericks and Sacramento Kings at home and the Detroit Pistons on the road. This will be the first meeting of the season between the Mavs and Cs and fans with Boston Celtics tickets will have their eyes on how the Celtics contain Dirk Nowitzki. While the Sacramento Kings are a scrappy, athletic bunch, they should be no match for the Boston Celtics. The Boston Celtics will then travel to Motor City to take on Allen Iverson and the Detroit Pistons, a team that seems to be hitting their stride as of late.
