From the other thread, a 122.3 ORTG and a 113.4 DRTG puts the Celtics' NRTG at 8.9 or a 61-win team. Last year's squad won 56 games against a 59-win projection. I expect them to at least clear last year's 56-win baseline, with my actual guess sitting at 58 wins with health.

Expectations for the Celtic's defense this season.
Top 10 in the league in:
EFG%, DREB%, FTr
League average in:
TOV%

[🇿🇦Denver🇵🇸 @doubledworth]

Nah man do y'all hear this??

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

@TA1297 My biggest point about them not breaking 50 wins this season was that. They may be a fine 1st possession offense but can't generate 2nds while allowing a ton on the other end of the floor. Plus, will probs be a high TO team.

[Trey @TA1297]

We have sat our top like 8 guys in two games vs clear projected East playoff teams and DOMINATED both in the margins. Hell yea, I fucking love that shit.

I love Mazzulla Ball, this is my fucking shit baby.

Harper has been rather underwhelming so far.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Amari just isn't anything. I'm ready to give that spot to someone else.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Well, I'm not going to miss those airborne passes to nothing.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Didn't think the Sixers defense would be any good this year but I didn't expect their first action defense to be this bad. If Embiid isn't 100% they won't be in the top 20 defenses in the league.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

I need some Dillon Mitchell minutes

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

@TA1297 We can only hope.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

@undercleavage @CelticsTheis 2nd in drtg. The Blazers do have that one, but purely from playing the Lions. Still, the next non-Blazers team is an entire 11 points behind in ntrg.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Watching the Celtics is addicting.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Two great screeners and 3 great shooters? Derrick seems to like the lineup.

[Trey @TA1297]

I don’t want to be the Spurs, the Manu shit wouldn’t fly today

[Trey @TA1297]

Payton is our 2nd best player, do not play with me Joe. We will be starting him vs Detroit

[Stevie Wonder Bread @undercleavage]

Start Pritchard Joe. What the fuck are we doing lol

He is VERY clearly the second option. Derrick is better as an off guard.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Payton should genuinely be starting. I'm like the number 1 Walsh fan and know that Payton should still be starting.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Clear ass goaltend.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

I really like Moussa. If he ever becomes available I'd be super interested in the Celtics acquiring him. Not this year, obviously, but the next 2 seasons? Sure.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

Neemy??? I like the play initiation from that high point above the key.

[Greyson @Nevada3430]

What a steal.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard has agreed to a two-year, $44.2 million contract extension, plus a mutual option in the 2029-30 season, CAA Co-Head of Basketball Austin Brown and agent Max Saidman tell ESPN.
