Description

We stop treating the Celtics like a fun regular season story and start asking the only question that matters: what survives a seven game series. We argue through Joe Mazzulla’s biggest pressure points, then map out how Boston can score in more than one way when the matchups get ugly. 
• regular season success versus playoff chaos as the real test 
• concerns about Mazzulla sticking to Plan A too long 
• expectation shift after outperforming win projections 
• Jaylen Brown as the first option in the attack 
• Jayson Tatum’s reintegration and more physical driving 
• need for multiple offensive profiles beyond iso threes 
• Nikola Vucevic as a post scorer and passer 
• value of paint touches, entry passes, and kickout threes 
• bench “competency” lineups that protect leads 
• playoff rotation questions for Shireman, Walsh, Gonzalez 
• East threats that create bad series Atlanta and Cleveland 
• Knicks, Pistons, and Heat as fight-based opponents 
• West watch OKC, Lakers scenarios, Clippers chaos, Spurs rise 
• player development as a quiet win this season
