How good are the Celtics?
29-22 tied for the 3rd seed in the east.
I really cant figure this team out.

Re: How good are the Celtics?
I love their coaching, but their roster has a few holes that keep them from taking it to the next level of consistency. Given their youth and stockpile of picks + cap space though, they are in great shape going forward.

So strange watching them....No Stars!
Obviously the coach Stevens is one of the best in the league. I like the way he plays pretty much everybody. The second team is as good as the first team. Everyone defends like an animal.
Anyway, they are good and actually improving. By the end of the year, they could have 3 seed even.

better than the Cavs if they manage to make a move for Gallo

Re: How good are the Celtics?
Well, it was a given. Once they figured it out, they were at the worst a Top 4 seed.
Their division is easy with no real threats to them outside New York, but they struggle to beat teams above .500.

Re: How good are the Celtics?
Jae, IT, Bradley are the only 3 guys that has a regular spot on the team. Rightfully, so they're the best 3.
What the hell is going on with that PF-C rotation though? Sully, KO, Amir and now Zeller might be in the mix.

Re: How good are the Celtics?
Legends....you still grieving over Toronto's losses last couple of playoffs?
time to get over it and be more optimistic, homey.

Re: How good are the Celtics?
People underestimate how good they are defensively and their depth means they can play with effort consistently. An example being how good they are in back to backs (I believe they are top 4 in the association), 16-3 going over the last year with most those games being on the road.
Their young talent also gets over looked especially KO and Smart. Not that they are sexy but they do being a lot of positives to the table. However, just wish they were more consistent but both are playing well especially over the latest stretch.

Raps are legit
they have 2 all stars in their prime
the difference this year is they are both healthy on top of their natural progression of getting better.

They play with tons of effort and are very good statistically on the defensive end. That being said, they're a good regular season team. We saw what they did after the All Start break last year and so far this season.
Come playoff team I don't really expect them to make much noise. That's the period where you need a legit leader on the team which the C's don't have yet. (Although IT does continue to impress me night in and night out.)
Hopefully the draft works out in our favor. We have a great coach and a good group of guys heading into the future. I expect us to be vying for Eastern Conference supremacy in the next 3-4 years especially once LeBron seriously begins to decline and the East becomes more open.

Westbrook and Durant to the C's.
