Why do we Celtics?

BILL: I’m not exactly sure when it happened. It could have been after Danny Ainge gutted a Celtics team I loved and shipped out Isaiah Thomas, Avery Bradley, and Jae Crowder. I thought those guys were the life blood of the rebuild and maybe not so much for their ability, but for their attitude and grit. It could have been after seeing Gordon Hayward crumple to the floor in Cleveland just minutes into his promising career in Boston. As gut punches go, that was the gut punches of all gut punches.
