NBA Power Rankings: LeBron James Tweets + Are The Boston Celtics For Real?

Boston Celtics. 6. team. 18. <p>The Boston Celtics probably should’ve lost like three times this week, instead of once, but they continue to pull out games that they probably shouldn’t be. And credit to Brad Stevens and this young team. They continue to outwork teams on a night-to-night basis.</p> <p>Even though this team lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers to close the week, that’s not necessarily a horrible thing. They’re supposed to lose to the Cavs. It’s OK. Though, I continue to wonder just how good this Celtics team can be, as currently constructed.</p> <p>They don’t have any star players, though Isaiah Thomas is really good, and are winning games because they’re outworking and out-hustling opponents. Will that continue to be the case in the playoffs, when every team is coming with energy and hustle on every possession? I’m not sure. But it’s going to be really interesting to see how this team’s season unwinds.</p>. (38-26). Previous: 6th
