Like or not, the Celtics progress is dependent on the same thing it was two weeks ago...its young players developing.  We can dream of free agent signings and lopsided trades but nothing will happen until Smart, Young, Hunter, Sullinger, Rozier, or Olynyk develop into legit starters or better yet stars. 

Of this group Smart seems the most likely candidate.  He's already proven he has the drive and leadership qualities, but he clearly needs to improve several area's of his game.  Young is receiving a great deal of press but after watching him with the Red Claws I'll believe it when I see it.  I'm am optimistic with Hunter and could see him (if he develops) into a great back court pairing with Smart.  Hunter shot is fantastic and at very least is a solid distributer of the basketball.

It's never great to have Ifs or question marks on a professional sports team...unfortunately our teams progress depends on them.
