For the Celtics, there is a lot to be excited about. Young talent in Marcus Smart, a great front office from ownership on down to the coaching staff and they also have flexibly in the draft.
Again, a lot to be excited about. They are even blooming earlier than expected with a playoff run last season.
But, could they make an even bigger jump in 2015-16? It's not that far fetched.
Just finished up the Insider previews for Hornets and Celtics. Consider me sold that the C's are the Baby Hawks of 2015-16.
Out of all the teams in the NBA, the Celtics can relate to the Hawks the most.
