NBA Power Rankings: Where do Celtics stand among current playoff teams?

Share

We're more than halfway through the 2018-19 NBA season, and the Boston Celtics are ... not where we expected.

The Celtics enter Wednesday with a 25-18 record and the No. 5 seed in the Eastern Conference. Considering they entered the season as favorites to win the whole conference, that's a pretty big disappointment.

Boston gets a crucial test Wednesday night at home against the Toronto Raptors, who are seven games ahead of them for first place in the East. With that matchup looming, we'll rank the 16 teams (eight from each conference) that would qualify for the playoffs if the season ended today.
