It’s difficult to imagine how the Boston Celtics plan to divvy up their cap space this offseason. The postseason results will dictate that.
Lose in the postseason play-in? Forget it. Heads will roll everywhere. Everyone outside of the Jays (hell, maybe even outside of just Jayson Tatum) not tied down will be sent into the wind.
Lose in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals? Well, it could be the same result if Boston is swept by the likes of Milwaukee or Brooklyn, who would qualify as a potential nightmare matchup.
