No games, but timeto heal all the injuries

OK, the season has been put on hold, but it could be good for the Cs if they can get a good amount of their injured players back to near 100% during the layoff.

The playoffs are probably now closer than we originally imagined as many regular season games are likely to be cancelled as the NBA is not likely going
to want to have the playoffs still going on after mid June.

Ever team will come back a little rusty, but if the Cs can get their team healthy again they may have an improved chance at winning the East.

Your thoughts?

I think it may be optimistic to think the Playoffs are closer now. They were scheduled to begin April 18th. That is 37 days from now. These jokers are 37 days behind already.

I just heard on the NBC/TVSports, the Celtics cannot get back together until the end of next week. A long time to be away from teammates, but, the upside to this may be that Kemba and Jaylen will be at full tilt and ready for the stretch run, if there is one. I wonder if this means that they cannot singularly go to the practice facility alone.

Silver lining for sure.

All things and circumstances being equal, the Celtics stand to gain with rest and healing.

Brown, R Williams, Walker and Theis all could use a little more recuperation.

There probably won't be enough time away to worry about rust settling in, and that will be an equal factor for all anyway.
