Just an FYI from Optimism Land: 

- Our team is 1 game away from the NBA Finals
- Our PG is the best in the league (at least top 3)
- Our hall-of-fame vets are playing at a high level, and may have a lot left in the tank
- We have one of the best coaches in the NBA
- We have one of the best defensive teams in the league, and the best left in the playoffs
- We have a great GM (and owners)
- We have a (potential) All NBA Defensive 1st team shooting guard who is not even playing right now
- We have a 6'10" 25 year-old dynamic SF/PF former top 5 pick who hasn't played a minute all season
- We have a 6'10" 23 year-old athletic SF/PF 1st rounder who we haven't scratched the surface with yet
- We have 2 1st round draft picks in a deep draft this year
- We may have significant salary cap space for the first time in a generation

Did I mention that we are 1 game away from the NBA Finals?

TP.  Agreed.

It's a good time to be a Celtics fan!

I feel like there's an overcast over your parade here...

But I can't say anything negative right now!  I love this team and I'm too busy living in and loving the present to think much about the future!
