BOSTON — For 82 games, the Celtics’ depth — particularly at the wing position — was one of its biggest strengths. “We just have 15, 16 guys that can impact winning,” Joe Mazzulla said before the playoffs. “At any point in time, people can help us win.” When Mazzulla made that comment, it resonated. We’d […]
Three big men that can help the Celtics

The Celtics can’t enter next season with another half-answer at center
There is no such thing as a Joel Embiid stopper. That feels like a decent place to start, because if the Celtics spend the summer trying to find one, they’ll be chasing the wrong thing. Embiid is a former MVP for a reason. When he’s healthy, comfortable and getting to his spots, there are only […]
