The Celtics are in good shape

As predicted last week, the double-digit winning streak the Celtics had came to an end against a Florida team. It was the Miami Heat. No matter. The Celtics are in good shape and have a real shot at the NBA Finals.

Losing Gordon Hayward was a tough blow, but it’s a blessing in disguise. Their young players develop early and then they become reliable support once Hayward returns. They’ve proven they can win. Kyrie Irving is trying to make it clear that he can lead a winning team. He’s doing it so far.

There are no signs of this Boston team slowing down anytime soon.
