The season is on the horizon. It’s time to get back into the swing of things by examining the intricacies of the game and it’s hard to talk about the finer points of the Boston Celtics’ offense without mentioning Al Horford, the center (hah) of basically everything good that happens with this team. Since acquiring Horford, the Celtics have made it to back-to-back Eastern Conference Finals, and his positive impact is undeniably obvious both on and off the box score.
After the first two games of the season, the Celtics went on the infamous streak that lasted 16 games, including wins over key Western Conference powers such as the Golden State Warriors and the Oklahoma City Thunder.
