Kevin McHale spoke about his former team and teammate during a conference call with Turner Sports analysts. His take on the current competitiveness of the Celtics' roster is similar to what many people would say- close, but maybe not close enough.
He believes another key scorer who can create for himself (like Isaiah Thomas) would put Boston over the top. A. Sherrod Blakely from CSNNE.com noted McHale's comments:
They will play very well, (Al) Horford was a good pick up for them. But I think (they) would like to get another star type of player.
