Wow, Tatum went for 14, 10, and 3 tonight. He might legitimately start on an ECF-bound team as a rookie. That's crazy.
I think once Morris comes back and we have more time to develop chemistry we'll still be a formidable team. A lineup of Kyrie, Brown, Morris, Tatum, and Horford is still incredibly dynamic, athletic, and long. We need to really kick up the tempo and muck up the game, though.
that could be a very good starting line up. i expect inconsistency from tatum since he is a rookie. but i expect some great games from him as well.
the key for the celtics playoffs will be hayward. just how bad is the injury? does he have any chance of coming back late in the season? playoffs are sometime in april, right? that gives him just over 5 months to heal and recover.
that is asking a lot, but stranger things have happened.
