As the Celtics start fresh in a new season, Al Horford believes the chemistry they built during their improbable turnaround last year is still very much present.
“I felt like once we jelled together midway through last year, it kind of carried over,” Horford said. “When we got back this season, it’s kind of like buddies. You get back to school, everybody’s back hanging out together.”
Horford said that camaraderie is noticeable both on the court and off. He referenced a team dinner in Greensboro, North Carolina, and how several players checked out the Boston College-Clemson football game together in person.
