Offseason Musings on the World Champion Boston Celtics

I'm still pinching myself.

It’s hard to believe that just 6 short weeks ago the Boston Celtics completed one of the most remarkable year-to-year turnarounds in team sport’s history. The NBA Draft, a flurry of player movement, and gearing up for the Olympics have pushed the 2008 World Champions into the background so far this offseason. Even when they have made headlines, it has been for unfortunate reason – namely, the loss of James Posey to the New Orleans Hornets. Well forget about the Clippers, Sixers, and Team USA for a moment, because it’s time for a closer look at the implications of the Celtics’ offseason thus far.
