It’s hard to imagine the Boston Celtics get much worse than they were last season.
However, after a quiet draft night and an even quieter first few days of free agency, it’s plausible that the Cs fall in the East’s power rankings despite fortifying their defense and rebuilding their coaching staff.
Brad Stevens has made it clear that the Celts are not content on repeating last season’s mistakes, but they are also satisfied on missing on free agents this season, so they have more flexibility next summer.
