The Boston Celtics have nothing left to play for. Right now, every game is about testing out stuff we haven’t seen in a while and finding out what works and what needs to be discarded. There’s no real need to play with urgency. And there’s certainly no reason to risk injury. As such, there’s less to take away from each game — especially if I’m trying not to re-hash stuff we’ve already looked at ad nauseam.
So, for the final few games, I’ll vary the takeaways. If there’s enough, we’ll do 10. If there’s not, there will be less.
