Key player for the Boston Celtics
It has long been disputed whether Jason TatumOn his own, he was capable of leading and taking on the responsibility of being the central figure of a team. Five seasons after being drafted, the Duke-bred forward has proven not only that he’s MVP material, but that he’s barely scratching the surface of all the talent at his disposal. The last Playoffs signed by the Celtics player, especially considering the physical problems he caused, They were flawless.
Tatum has long been asked to mature his game, take it to the next level, which is to make better decisions and polish those little flaws that have cost Boston wins in the past. Said and done, because the step forward he took in last season’s definition is good enough to confirm that he is one of the superstars of the NBA and one of the names of the future in the competition.
Even so, with all the positives that the last year was for his little one Jace, There is still the question of whether it was the result of group dynamics or an irreversible upward trend. The overall picture regarding Tatum will be fundamental in evaluating his game and whether this step taken was solid or a matter of collective implosion.
Key year for the green star who enters the second of his new contract.
The story ahead for the Boston Celtics in the 2022-2023 season
Last year there was a lot of pressure surrounding the Boston Celtics. New coach, almost the same lineup and always high expectations. After a forgettable start to the season, Ime Udoka finally found the key and the team took off, losing 22 games throughout 2022, including the Regular Phase and Playoffs. The Greens became the fans’ favorite team, a story of overcoming and rivaling. However, now more will come complicated for the Boston set: consolidate.
The Celtics have done extremely well from the front office in this one off season, Especially bolstering such an important role as backup point guard, one that has limited them greatly in previous Finals. On the other hand, the addition of Danilo Gallinari, who came in to fill a hole in the team, was soon diminished by the Italian’s devastating injury that will keep him out of action for the entire course. Which could lead them to seek a replacement on the market with a league-granted exception.
So, the big key going forward for the green team this season will be whether Ime Udoka’s side can maintain the momentum of last season or if they remain in a fleeting burst and without much travel. These first few months will be crucial to the project’s long-term viability, even more so after how close the team came to glory in previous Playoffs. Health will be the Achilles heel once again from the greens. In fact, they are going to have to survive the early stages of the course without Robert Williamshis defensive axis, which was operated again for arthroscopy on the left knee.
The roof of the Boston Celtics is none other than the ring, the question that needs to be resolved is whether they can make it to June with all their pieces intact.
