The 2020-21 season hasn’t been kind to the Boston Celtics, but it isn’t the end of the world…yet.
Despite their .500 start to the season, they are still half a game back of home-field advantage in the first round of the playoffs, and 4.5 games back of the top seed in the east.
It’s been a tough year for everyone–even the league-best Utah Jazz, who are in the process of repairing the rocky relationship between their two stars caused by Rudy Gobert’s lax attitude about COVID-19 last March–so as things slowly get better, perhaps things will shift back to normal.
