Should the Celtics be Resting Their Starters?

Following a 117-94 blowout win over the Chicago Bulls, the Boston Celtics will have only two games remaining in their season before the playoffs. With their 50th win of the season, Boston has now locked themselves into a top 4 seed, as they can no longer slip past 4th place. That means that the Celtics will be shuffling with the Heat, Bucks and 76ers to see what their seeding will ultimately be. While home court is important, Boston has to weigh their options on whether or not they can afford the Brooklyn Nets in the first round without Robert Williams.

In a tough matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks on the 2nd night of a back-to-back, the Celtics have a tough decision to make with managing player minutes before the postseason kicks off. Should the Celtics be resting their starters? Or, should they keep pushing and trying to win out the rest of the way? The Garden Report crew weighs in on the subject and visits the Eastern Conference playoff seeding.
