Stat Gives Celtics Hope of Catching Bucks for No. 1 Seed

Take it from Malcolm Brogdon: The Boston Celtics have their sights set on catching the Milwaukee Bucks in the Eastern Conference.

"I think when Milwaukee took the No. 1 seed from us after the break, (it was) sort of a shock to us

that we had dropped because we had created some separation between us and them," Brogdon told reporters Sunday night.

"And that's something we want. We want the No. 1 seed. I think this team understands the importance of

having home-court advantage in the playoffs. So that's something we're going after."
