Havlicek Stole the Pod: Worst-case scenario for these Celtics
Winslow Townson-USA TODAY SportsThat’s it. I believed in this Celtics team through their 10-10 start, with so many silver linings to hang on to. No more.
Gordon Hayward could’ve come around. He did, then reverted to four points per game following an all-star break injury. Marcus Morris thrived through the whole first half, and has smashed back to Earth since his injury. The Celtics won 10 of 11 before the break, but still clamored as Irving described a challenging year on ESPN. I wondered why they weren’t content with the wins, now five losses in six games showed why. This is deeper than basketball.
