Don't panic by these losses, I believe the Celtics found the right rotation when they won 8 straight. Now it's just seeing who can play under the bright lights among the younger players. I think we will continue to see variations until February. They play down to competition, but then have a hard time refocusing for the good teams. They're streaky because they're young and good.
The lineup is Kyrie, Smart, Tatum, Morris and Horford.
Hayward, Brown, Baynes and Rozier off the bench.
Celtics are playing the long game because as we know seedings haven't helped us. Nothing is won in December. When the Celtics don't hit open shots, the ball stops moving and everyone starts going one on one. When the Celtics are hitting their shots they can score upwards of 130 points and their assist totals go over 30 and they are very very hard to beat.
Kyrie is learning how to be a leader and I think he's seeing it ain't easy. Watch how well they play the Sixers on Christmas.
