NBA Christmas: What every team needs this holiday season

Boston Celtics: Cohesiveness

The Boston Celtics, for much of the season, have really struggled to start the year. They aren’t playing anything like we expected them to be this season, and a big part of that is because all their pieces aren’t exactly fitting together great.

While Kyrie Irving is doing Kyrie Irving things, Jaylen Brown and Terry Rozier haven’t been as effective as last season. Perhaps that has to do with the fact that they’re playing less this season, due to the return of Gordon Hayward and Kyrie.

Whatever it is, though, they need to correct the issues. Hopefully, that’s something that can be fixed with an adjustment by Brad Stevens. But there’s no guarantee that it can happen. We’ll see what happens, however.
