Still Waiting on the Celtics

The Boston Celtics are in a strange position of being a subpar team, yet still in position to make a run for one of the bottom two seeds in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The team has looked solid over the past coupe of weeks, winning some tough games on the west coast and giving the best team in the NBA a run for its money in Golden State. The coach and some of its young players give hope to Celtics fans that this team could be right in the middle of the playoff hunt next year, and perhaps even stronger in the years following. If a few draft picks and free agent signings workout, the team could be back where it wants to be a little sooner than expected.
