Coming into this season, the expectations were understandably low for the Celtics. They were projected to be around a .500 team; maybe good enough to sneak into the playoffs if everything went right, and maybe looking at a top 5 pick if everything went wrong (depending on your point of view, I suppose).
But obviously, that hasn’t been the case at all, and the team has performed so well that fans are dreaming of chasing a championship. But as the playoffs have approached and that dream has become a reality, it has become impossible not to see some of the flaws that may be on display come playoff time.
