With the fourth seed already clinched, most of the regular rotation guys had the night off as the reserves were given a chance in the regular-season finale vs the Washington Wizards.

There were as many as seven double-digit scorers for the Celtics and Terry Rozier led all scorers with 21 points, The Celtics would really like Rozier to step up with similar performances in the [layoffs whenever needed; he could make some serious impact from the bench.

Semi Ojeleye, Brad Wanamaker, R.J. Hunter all had an impressive game, as all of them chipped in with 17 points each.

The Celtics themselves have been underwhelming by their standards and should be happy that this regular season is over.

The fourth-seeded Celtics will be up against the Indiana Pacers in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. It is expected to be a competitive series but the Celtics should be hopeful of going through.

The Celtics should forget about the regular season and start afresh. If they play hard, play as a team, then they have the talent to beat anyone.
