Damn. Celtics have a real shot at becoming a legit powerhouse. Wonder what direction they will go in.

Kind of baffled superstars are not trying to join Boston over the past 2 years.

Been like that for decades even when they were great. Some of it due to the city's bad reputation with African American players and some due to the location not being as great like LA or Miami or New York when they are actually good.

Think historically its been Lakers getting big stars usually from free agency while Cs got theirs usually from drafts and trades.

There's also a legacy of excellence playing as a Celtic. Nothing is stronger in the history of the NBA than Celtic Pride. Some players can't handle it.

Don't think I ever heard of expected excellence from Boston. No idea what you are talking about.

Ah, ya I can see the rep making it not so friendly. Hoping they do get a superstar this year especially with players wanting to find rings now a day. Paul George could easily be there final piece.
