Is that Boston in the Play-Offs?
Just like that the
stars have aligned, and the Boston Celtics have made the play-offs. No, that isn�t
a typo, and I wasn�t meant to say �Play-In�. The Celtics are locked in and are
going to the play-offs.
Some fans or
personalities around the league, may make comments along the lines of, �it is
about time� and �should of made it years ago�. Some may also make statements
like, �Hands down GM of the year� and perhaps, �I wish I had the Boston�s GM
patience and foresight�. Having my ear to the ground, the latter comments are
the ones I am hearing more often.
Boston finished the season with a record of 51 wins and 31 losses. Which has them sitting fifth in the Eastern Conference. This won�t be a shock to anyone when I say that this is the new record for the Boston Franchise since the opening of the league.
The plan from long
time GM, Toby, seems to finally be coming to fruition. His band of youth are
growing into themselves, obviously lead by MVP candidate Jayson Tatum and his
running mate Darius Garland.
I would say James
Wiseman has been the surprise of the season and may be in the conversation for
most improved. His last couple of weeks have been amazing so is taking some
good form into the play-offs.
Boston will be at full
strength, so some decisions will need to be made with the rotations. The club feels
they have a very strong bench unit and are hoping they can come in and continue
to produce. This unit will most like be led by a combination of Sengun, Rozier
and KPJ. But obviously nothing is set in stone as any of them is a starting
calibre player.
Fans are rejoicing
and besides themselves with excitement. Tickets in Boston have already sold out
and the city is currently being painted green.
This team clearly lacks
a lot of play-off experience but hopefully the team can make some noise come
game time.
