Before the season started, it was reasonable to think that the Boston Celtics may face regression after last season. While signing multi-time All-Star Kemba Walker was nice, losing Al Horford and Aron Baynes and expecting their switch-ability on the defensive end and steadiness on the offensive end to be replaced by a platoon of Daniel Theis, Enes Kanter and Robert Williams.
As we were saying all preseason, it was going to take a big leap from either Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown to see this team being as good as last season.
