So are we all aboard the tank train after game 1 of 82?

AJ Dybantsa be a beast.

As long as you have Pritchard/white/brown you?ll have guys giving their all to win games?might not really matter either way but one of those guys getting *injured*would assure a tank

After the first game of the season against a formidable opponent?  No, not at all.  This team has too many talented players to tank properly.  Now if we suffer injuries to JB and other key players, sure.  I don't expect a deep playoff run this year.

They will play hard but just won't win very many games. Defense is bad, bench bad and they have too many guys that really never should play.

A part of me be hoping this team can resemble anything similar to the 2017-2018 Celtics (where we lost Hayward in Game 1 of 82 for the season, and also lost Kyrie midseason) that willed their way to Game 7 of the ECF.

But so far this sounds bad (lacking talent depth and Tatum-less), might be worse than the 2020-2021 Celtics.

They should absolutely be worse than the 2020-2021 Celtics based on the talent on the roster alone.

It is interesting how different feelings people have based on a single game. I would like to see us do a soft tank but this game made me think we are more likely to be around 38 wins as opposed to 28 as an example
