The Celtics were swept at the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers this week, but think about how far they've come in the last 12 months.
Before you get too down in the dumps about the Celtics' season coming to the unceremonious end that it did, with the Cleveland Cavaliers prevailing in a seemingly effortless four-game sweep, I'd like to weigh in with some perspective. Just stop for a moment, if you could, and think back to where we were a year ago. Do you remember 2014?
I do. Last April, the Celtics were just finishing up a 25-57 season.
