Ridiculous conspiracy theory for Celtics' brutal home loss to Hornets Monday

In all seriousness, I don't for one second believe Danny Ainge, Brad Stevens, or any of the Celtics players had any interest in losing to Charlotte on Monday.  However, there's no reasonable explanation for what was probably their worst quarter of the season...

Celtics down 63-41 at halftime. They led 38-32 with 8 minutes left in the second quarter. 31-3 Hornets run.

...and I did have this conversation on Twitter yesterday:

@julianedlow @Marc_DAmico Hotter take: C's should lose on purpose tonight to try to push Maimi to 6th seed and get Charlotte the 5th seed
