In typical rebuilding fashion, the Celtics are a collection of players that all have some value, but don't fit together as a team. Basically, they have an entire team of guys you would like coming off your favorite team's bench.
Last year, the Celtics were dead last in rebound differential. This season, they add Kris Humphries, who is a good rebounder, but he isn't enough to keep opponents from dominating Boston on the glass again this year.
The Celtics have faith in Brad Stevens. Time will tell if that faith is well-placed, but we know for sure that he'll struggle in his first year.
Rajon Rondo is the only player on the Celtics roster capable of carrying them to wins. Too bad he's not going to be on the floor until sometime in 2014. And even then, he might be wearing a different uniform.
The Celtics need to rebuild, and the only way to truly rebuild in the NBA is by hitting on a franchise player in the draft. So be happy Boston fans, it's a good thing if they suck this year.
