Celtics Fans Guide to Watching the 2013-14 Season

Brought to you by The Rich Keefe Project

How should Celtics' fans handle this bizarre season?  Root for a loss every night? Hope they make the playoffs?  Here is a friendly guide on how to "enjoy" this season.

  • Is Brad Stevens the coach for the future?  The former Butler coach signed at 6-year deal.  Does he have the respect of the players, do they play hard?
  • The development of the young players, Avery Bradley, Jared Sullinger, Kelly Olynyk, Vitor Faverani, MarShon Brooks.  Which guys do you want to keep, who should be traded?
  • Trade value of the vets: Gerald Wallace, Brandon Bass, Kris Humphries, Courtney Lee
  • Is Jeff Green a Top 3 player on a title team?
  • Competitive games, take the losses, but don't freak out with the wins... especially if it includes sticking it to LeBron James and Ray Allen
  • Scout the opponenets.  Who might be the next Garnett/Allen?  (Will the Blazers/T-Wolves be bad enough to trade Aldridge/Love?)
  • Get in on college basketball!  Watch Kentucky, Kansas, Duke, Arizona, etc.  Learn Andrew Wiggins, Julius Randle, Jabari Parker, Andrew Harrison, Joel Embiid, Aaron Gordon, and the like so you have a strong opinion come June's Draft.

There you have it.  Good luck this year.
