Will the Celtics win 60 games in 2022-23?

Will the Celtics win 60 games in 2022-23?

“Missing Robert Williams III from the frontcourt for the first few months will hurt, but Malcolm Brogdon’s addition to the other end of the lineup could offset the raw production loss,” adds the B/R analyst.

“This absence could also force the Celtics to lean even further into the positionless lineups. Last season, they were plus-6.5 points per 100 possessions when Al Horford was on the floor and Williams wasn’t. And Jaylen Brown thrived in those situations when he averaged 27.5 points per 75 possessions with a 62.4 true shooting percentage. Oh, and Jayson Tatum, who finished sixth in MVP voting last season, is still around, too.”

“All of that is to say that Boston should still be plenty strong while it awaits Williams’ return. And if it hits a midseason groove like it did in 2021-22, 60 wins aren’t out of the question,” finishes Bailey.
