He tried playing a couple games here and there but not to no avail. The Celtics still got 62 wins but lost in the second round to Orlando. Looking back on it had KG remained healthy, and the Celtics improved their bench with someone other than Mikki Moore, they may have been the first Celtics' team in 40 years to repeat as champions.

Ray Allen expected to play tonight against Indiana
No surprise here. Allen will be needed more tonight than he would have on Wednesday against New Jersey. Hopefully his sick day didn't cool off his shooting touch at all. The man's been a machine all year long and the Celtics could really use another off-the-charts performance from him tonight.
