Eight Straight and Counting...
The Boston Celtics have enjoyed one of the NBA's best home-court advantages over the past 13 months. The Orlando Magic have spent the same period becoming one of the league's top road teams.
The Celtics will look to extend their eight-game winning streak Monday night when they face the Magic, who will be short-handed as they try to win their seventh straight away from home.
Boston (16-2) went an Eastern Conference-best 35-6 at home last season en route to a league-best 66-16 record. The Celtics then went 13-1 in the playoffs at TD Banknorth Garden on the way to their 17th NBA championship.

Kia Walking School Bus
The Boston Celtics teamed up with Kia Motors today to encourage Boston Public School students to increase their exercise by walking to school. Celtics players Tony Allen and Brian Scalabrine led a group of students in East Boston to the James Otis Elementary School in the form of a walking school bus. After arriving at the school, a special assembly was held for all students at which the Celtics players spoke to the students about the importance of being physically active to maintain a healthy mind and body.
