This is what young teams do -- they fall apart late in games.
Games like this are what will eventually secure this team a lottery spot.
Picking 9th or 10th along with a feel-good year and nice development from Sullinger, Bradley, etc.
That's what I'm hoping for from this season at this point.
Agreed. this team has beaten one decent team all year, at the buzzer. We need to be realistic.
Yeah I'm hopping on this wagon now
Except, how could Boston end up picking 9th or 10th? They're gonna end up making the playoffs in this crappy conference.
I still think the Raptors or Knicks will end up sneaking in ahead of them, and the Celtics will have the 9th or 10th best record in the East.
That'll be contingent on Danny making some moves to dump vets. It'll also depend on what moves other teams make.
In any case, I could see the Celtics making the playoffs given the state of the division and the conference. I just hope it doesn't happen. Making the playoffs with this team would be a minor disaster considering the goals of the season and where this team is at.
