I might adjust my expectations down to 6 or 7 based on the fact that it looks like the Celts are gonna take some time to figure out how to make their lineups work.  Team looks much rougher and sloppier than you'd expect for a team that only added two significant rotation pieces in the off-season.

I'm thinking the same, possible to get hot and figure it out against weaker teams giving us 8 wins but CBS will have to do something with his starting line up. Crowder, Lee and Zeller do not work well together, not enough outside shooting with that line up.

Overloading your roster with mediocrity is never a recipe for success in the NBA.  Never.   Generally what happens is guys get traded away or injured, the rotations tighten up out of necessity, guys figure out their roles and start playing a bit better.    But if our roster stays as bloated as it is, we'll struggle to find a rhythm all season.

Obviously, we need a trade at some point this season.
