Bulpett: 7 things to watch for in Celtics camp this week

There are so many things I’m interested to see as the Celtics open training camp this week. Here are just seven:

1. Take me to your leader: I have no concerns at all regarding Kyrie Irving as a player, but his job will be different here — and not just because he’ll be cast as more of a true point guard. As the man in the spotlight, Irving will be looked to by his teammates and everyone on the outside to provide leadership. No doubt Al Horford will continue to be a key presence, on and off the floor, and Marcus Smart’s grit will set a tone, as well.
