Celtics: forge ahead in the struggle

Celtics should be the most serious team playing preseason .

's average playing time was more than 23 minutes. The core Tatum is the team's highest 28 minutes.

Preseason games are generally focused on training new players. It is very rare for players like Tatum to play for so long.

As for the reasons, there are probably two. First, when the new Uduka official takes office, he must show his attitude, sweep the haze of last season, and make the team look new. Second, the main force won't be able to win without playing for so long.

What? As the richest club in history, do you have to do your best in the preseason? Yes, this is the current state of the Celtics. Piggybacking also allowed the Raptors' main players to play longer, and they were also embarrassed. It was just the preseason. As for it?

Really.

actually resigned from the offseason Angie , Stevenson took his place and became president of operations. The Celtics began to rebuild.

Rebuilding does not mean to overthrow and start over, and there is no sale of good assets in the team. It's about making minor repairs, changing a head coach, and reorganizing the team system.

Celtics offseason operation:

Introduction: Schroder (middle class 5.9 million), Kanter (base salary), Richardson (1 year 12 million)

Transaction: Horford (2 years 27 million)

leave the team: Walker, Fournier, TT, Ogéle, Cornette, continued 5spanspan

Horford returned to the Celtics after a two-year absence,As the feat of entering the Eastern Finals, there are of course sentimental factors in welcoming Horford back, but more importantly, he has the ability to cope and three-pointers, which can open room for double exploration. But Horford is 35 years old after all, and how much fuel is in the tank can only be verified through the game.

takes the shrewdness of and the Green Army , of course, keep a hand. In case it doesn't work, Horford will have a player option next year, and he won't be at a loss when it comes to a contract.

Let Walker go. First, the management made him more or less burdened by the declining record at the end of the season, which is already a suspicion. Second, Pritchard has grown rapidly, cheap and easy to use, which is what the Green Army is accustomed to. style.

As for the missed Schroder, he may not be as effective as Walker. After all, he has proved his failure with the Lakers. But because he is the Celtics' biggest guard, it is not ruled out that Uduka will make him the starting point guard.

Richardson’s situation is somewhat similar. After signing and changing, the Green Army only gave him a one-year contract. The function of this man is relatively single. The Green Army introduced him to improve his shooting ability, but his comprehensiveness is not as good as Fournier. No accident, just a passer-by.

From this point of view, the only improvement for the Green Army's offseason operations is the inside line. Horford, Lowe and Kanter's inside combination is fairly solid. It is foreseeable that Lowe will take up the important task of protecting the frame in the new season, and the series with the Nets have proved his ability. With an annual salary of 10 million, it seems to be a good value for money.

If the Celtics play in this lineup in the new season, I am afraid it will not be much better than the situation last season.

First of all,Their lineup strength is almost the same as last season, and there is even a downward trend. It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and no matter how good the tactical system is, it will not be effective without the right person to execute it. You can refer to the Warriors from last season.

Secondly, Tatum's core play style. Of course he has the ability to take over the game, but if he is to be both a father and a mother to carry the whole game, he needs to score 40 points every night to win, then he will not be far away from the Green Army.

Here again, the Celtics have always had a problem with the lack of a third strong point. In the Eastern Conference finals season, if Irving did not miss out due to injury, it would not have been the Cavaliers who made it to the Finals. After that, the Green Army has been unable to go further, which is also the main reason for Anji's dismissal, because he did not form a strong lineup for the title.

Now the problem is still not solved, relying on a bunch of good role players, there is no chance in the playoffs. In the East, the Nets, Bucks, and Philadelphia are the first group, and the Heat must strive for the top half; the Knicks and the Eagles will likely be divided into five or six rankings; the Bulls, Pacers, Wizards, and Hornets are all looking forward to it, Kyle The special person is a little careless, I am afraid that he will fall into the situation of the play-offs.

If the main players remain healthy, the Celtics rely on iron-blooded discipline, early in the regular season, taking advantage of the opponent's lineup running in, the footing is not stable, may be able to accumulate a certain amount of capital. When others wake up, I am afraid they will fall into an embarrassing cycle again.

Unless the mid-season, there is a shocking trade, such as: a trade to the Wizards Bill.

prediction record: 42 wins
