We are getting better.

Especially with Smart starting.

The team is playing decent basketball but I doubt that they are ready for the big time competition like going on the road and beating the tough WC teams and a top 4 EC team. They do stay competitive most nights.
The beatings will continue until morale improves

Even bad teams usually string a few wins together.  I do think the better ball movement and defense with Smart starting is more encouraging than the wins themselves.

The thing I like is that we are finally scoring a lot of points in the fourth quarter.

Unlike the first half of the season.

Not all the wins have been against non contenders who could be accused of tanking. The form the squad are showing must help attract talent.

Just a little perspective. Opponents combined record during the 3-game winning streak -- 40 - 112. Wins are nice, but perspective is also important. The three teams they played the last three games consisted of two of the worst basketball teams I have ever seen, and a Denver team that hates its coach and has quit. Looking forward to the 10-15 pick in the draft.

I look for the Bucks to bring the Celtics back down to earth.   They are very athletic and quick .

I would like our chances against the Bucks little better with KO instead of Sully

True but they've won those games after losing KO, trading Rondo and Green for essentially Prince and Crowder and the losing Prince.  Think of how bad you thought Boston was going to be this year and then factor in those roster changes.

The Bucks should be a good test of how much these wins really mean.

Agreed,

After the draft ,  maybe a trade or two ,  I think or hope the Celtics will be very much like the Bucks in terms of wins and power rating .    I can see Bucks as the next rebuilding stage . I consider them a decent team when healthy with Parker . 

Going into the Bucks house ....will be a stiff road test .

I am enjoying this team better now.  I just wish Sully would play near the basket a bit more and limit his 3pt shooting to 1 per game if at all...

Not me.

I want a team where everyone shoots the 3.

KO moves side to side slower than Sullinger does.


Draft: 8 first rounders in next 5 years.

Cap space: $24 mil.
