I’m going to be honest… I’m really trying to temper a lot of enthusiasm for this Celtics team right now. I’ve been saying their ceiling is middle-of-the-pack…
This puts Boston in a very unique position this season where fans can openly root for the team to reach it’s middle-of-the-pack ceiling without worrying about the trappings of being a mediocre squad. The Celtics can make their run at a sixth seed without having last season’s argument about where their draft pick falls – as long the Nets are terrible and doing our lottery bidding for us.
