COMMENTARY
So, yeah. It’s Red Sox season now.
You can roll your eyes at that; I rolled them writing it. But here we are just after Memorial Day weekend. Being spared two more weeks of muttering some version of Charles Barkley’s righteous halftime dissection is good for our collective hypertension, but the healthy is often hard to commit to.
Speaking strictly about their defeats, the Celtics were the least likable Boston team in a very long time. A group whose ouster Monday flabbergasted so many, but hardly felt out of character to those of us who knew them.
