The Celts are going to have to rebuild again after only one championship season? Unfortunately, yes, probably, in the wake of Jayson Tatum’s devastating Achille’s heal injury. The Globe’s Gary Washburn explains why and how a Celts ‘reboot’ will probably unfold this off-season … Even before Gary’s excellent article came out, a Hub Blog reader wrote in:
“Given the (apparent) upcoming sale of the team and the ludicrous luxury taxes facing the Celtics, it’s easy to see them tearing it down next year and waving a fond farewell to Kristaps, Jhru and Al. If the 80s Celtics were operating under today’s NBA tax regime, they would’ve done likewise when McHale’s and Walton’s feet, and Larry’s back, went out… prepare for the Baylor Scheierman years.”
I’m not sure about the Baylor Scheierman years. But this current Celts era sadly seems over. What an awful turn of events.
