The Celtics started another season off strong going 6-0 in the 1st 6 games, but despite the success most games have been very close and 2 even by 1 shot, including game 6 vs. Hawks when Pierce, who was double teamed with 5 seconds left in a tie game gave a perfect pass to Hickson for the easy dunk at the buzzer to win. Morrow missed 3 games with a ankle injury, and the Celtics signed Mo Evans to fill the void, but he didn't get any time with Finley playing well in the absence.
