The 2014 Boston Celtics team is going to be an interesting team to watch. Some people are saying that because of the big trade that they made in the off-season(trading Pierce, Garnett, and Terry) that the Celtics are trying to get a good pick in the up coming draft to start the rebuilding process. While this team is not as talented as teams that they have had in the past, I still believe that it is a very talented team. I still believe that because they are in the Eastern Conference the Celtics have a very good chance at still getting into the playoffs. As for the Celtics projected starting lineup, here it is:
PG. Avery Bradley( Until Rajon Rondo returns)
SG. Courtney Lee
SF. Jeff Green
PF. Brandon Bass
C. Kris Humphries
Key Reserves
F. Gerald Wallace
G. Marshon Brooks
G. Keith Bogans
As you can see just by looking at the Celtics projected starting lineups and key reserves they will have a very deep team. I really like some of the players that they brought in with the trade of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Jason Terry. Marshon Brooks is a very good shooter coming off the bench, Keith Bogans is a very good defender, and Kris Humphries is a talented young starter in the league. The Celtics will struggle a lot in the absence of Rajon Rondo, but when they get him back I strongly believe that this is a Celtics team that will make a big run at the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference. They will struggle in the playoffs, but this is not a lottery team.
Find out if I believe that the Brooklyn Nets are a playoff team tomorrow.....
