A couple of weeks ago, I did a “Ranking the Celtics” series where I split up the Celtics into three different tiers: The Core, The Key Rotation, and the Situational team. The Situation team, though the lowest tier, can go from best bench cheerleader to starter in the blink of an eye. It’s an important role because though they may not be everyday players, they’re expected to give something very specific when they do get an opportunity to play the game. For example, if you’re a sharpshooter that isn’t quite good enough to break the everyday roster, guess what you’re going to be expected to do the second the coach calls your number?
Can Jabari Bird soar himself onto the Celtics roster?
