With the old guys like Pierce and KG as the heart of the team , they will be doing a lot of coasting in the first half of the season. We won't know what kind of team we have until end of March probably!
I think they will make the playoffs but likely go no where in the playoffs. Rondo's play is Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde. One day great , one day out to lunch. I think that hurts us in the playoffs.
