Boston Celtics
Biggest Hole: Shooting
The Boston Celtics hit a home run this summer by adding Al Horford. It was a move that needed to be done, even if you think he’s probably a little overpaid. Nevertheless, Horford could be only the beginning for what the Celtics will ultimately look like when the season starts.
With the potential for a bigger deal going down, because the Celtics seem to be in almost every trade rumor, there’s one glaring issue that needs to be addressed: shooting. Currently on their roster, their two best three-point shooters are big men (Kelly Olynyk, Jonas Jerebko). That can’t be a good sign.
The Celtics, with the way they chuck up the three-point shot, would greatly benefit from at least one above average outside shooter. Thing is, even if they do make a big move, the likelihood of them adding a shooter at this point of the offseason seems unlikely.
