NBA Power Rankings: Is it time to start talking about San Antonio Spurs?

18. The Boston Celtics are finally looking like the team that many had them projected as heading into the season. They have Al Horford, Isaiah Thomas and Jae Crowder back and healthy and it’s allowing them to fully unleash their depth on the NBA. The games leading up to the All-Star Break will be critical for this team as they must form some type of chemistry if they are going to challenge the likes of the Toronto Raptors and Cleveland Cavaliers for supremacy in the Eastern Conference this season. The Celtics might also look to add another high-caliber talent to the above mentioned trio in order to give their team one final jolt. Their overtime win over the Memphis Grizzlies last night should serve as a huge boost to this group and it’s play as they get deeper into the season. The Celtics have the tools and the assets to make a move that could help them jump up in the standings as the season goes on. However, after taking their time to work in Al Horford it might not be wise to make too big of a change in the season too.. 16-12. . Boston Celtics. 9. team
