And to be fair, 2023 Derrick White is looking like a big upgrade over 2022 “Just had a baby and still getting worked into the team” Derrick White.

Both represent a significant raising of our floor and that’s even with backsliding of other players.
Yeah, I almost mentioned DWhite too. I agree - Grant's backslide has been mitigated by how good they've both been. If we had 2022 Grant or even early 2023 Grant, it would be an unstoppable juggernaut.

That being said, I think people are kind of underestimating the Celtics because of their periods of disinterest at times and the injury management throughout the season.

Brogdon game. Ugly game. But among my favorite wins of the season. Toronto kinda needed that game and the Cs just sat three starters and won anyway.

Three Boston starters shoot 3-24 from three, and they miss 8 of 18 FTs, and they beat a team that should be fighting for their playoff future. Boston defense holds the Raptors to only 93 points on 90 shots, scrambling around to stymie this poor shooting team to a gristly 6-33 from three

Might want to play them a bit in the last game, given the long layoff before the playoff start.
Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking. Want to play them a little in at least one of the next two so they don’t have a week and a half of rust knock off next weekend.
