with a 11.5 game lead as the top seed one could possibly take it a little easy and ... rest for the playoffs.

That game kept you on the edge of your seat the whole time
Oh and the LeBron dunk over Jason Terry was CLASSIC!!

(17,090 posts)10. Celtics-Heat delivers big ratings
The outcome may not have been the one Celtics fans desired, but the Heat's thrilling 105-103 victory at TD Garden Monday night lived up to its advance billing and then some.
Miami extended its winning streak to 23 games despite a brilliant 43-point performance by the Celtics' Jeff Green. It should come as little surprise that the excitement of the game resulted in impressive ratings for both ESPN and Comcast SportsNet New England.
ESPN's national telecast, with Mike Tirico and Hubie Brown calling the game, earned a 3.1 overnight rating, the third-best number ever for a regular-season NBA game on the network.
The only two higher-rated regular season games were a Lakers-Rockets matchup January 17, 2003 (3.8) and a Knicks-Heat game February 27, 2011 (3.2).
