The Boston Celtics are leading the Eastern Conference and widely seen as one of the best teams in the NBA so far this season. The Celtics elite shooting from beyond the arc is a major factor in their success, but with a more varied offense made possible by the addition of Kristaps Porzingis in the offseason, the ball club is elite on both ends of the court.
And though the team’s bench rotation is better than it has been in many seasons, there are still some cracks in the foundation they provide that Boston needs to address if it wants to give itself the best possible chance at hanging a banner this summer.
In the eyes of some, the Celtics have a potent mix of offensive firepower and defensive skill, with their championship aspirations hinging on addressing their bench concerns.
