.

None to add, just that I think Fultz forgetting how to shoot is the weirdest, and saddest. Hope he gets the touch and confidence back as I hate to see any young player struggle like that. (Just as long as he doesn’t get too carried away and makes the difference in a playoff series against us.)

Marcus Smart has a confrontation with a picture frame

I was gonna add that one, except this way:

Marcus Smart loses fight to picture frame, wait, maybe picture frame loses fight because no one has seen it since.

Add to the list:

Aron Baynes becomes the best 3 point shooter for the Celtics in the playoffs.

The Celtics make it almost to the Finals without their two best All-Stars.

LeBron averages 50 minutes per game over the regular season and playoffs. He then hibernates for the next two months. (JK!)
