The Celtics should just shoot for 20 losses in a row

What do the Boston Celtics have to lose? They lost their 17th game in a row last night against New Jersey extending their franchise record losing streak. The streak of consecutive losses outnumbers the amount championships the mighty Celtics' franchise holds (16).

It was Paul Pierce's return to the lineup last night and it wasn't enough to stop the bleeding of their losing ways. They dropped the contest 92-78.

We say they should just go for 20 in a row. Well, it's a distinct possibility that it may happen. They are on the road for six of their next seven contests.

If they were to lose their next three (@ Minnesota, Milwaukee @ home, and @ Sacramento) that would make it a nice even 20 in a row. After the Kings game they remain on their west coast swing against, Phoenix, L.A. Lakers, Utah, and Houston.

So while you may want to feel sorry for the Celtics in their current situation, you can't help but want to see just how far this streak will go until they actually win. The funny thing will be to see the Celtics celebrate once they do finally break the streak.
