Happy New Year everyone! It seems strange that we are now in the year 2010. It's like we're living in some 80's Sci-Fi movie. Anyway, the year didn't end too well for the Celtics, but there is much hope for 2010. First off, let's not get all up in arms about this 3 game losing streak. It's better that we lose now and get everyone healthy come May and June. I'm confident the C's will get it together and start the year with a bang tomorrow night. Here are a few of the things I hope to see out of the Celtics in 2010:
- A healthy KG and Pierce. If either one is hurt come playoff time we're done.
- Improved free throw shooting from Rondo
- Rasheed going down low more and cutting down on the three ball
- Less minutes for Ray to keep him fresh
- More consistency from the bench(Doc needs to trust them more)
- No more losses at home on Friday Nights
- More shots for Perk and Big Baby, less for Rasheed
- Perk on the All Star team
- Scalabrine dunking on Lebron to win the Eastern Conference Finals
And ofcourse Banner#18. Let's be honest here, that is the only goal the Celtics should have. We have this year and next year to win another title before the team is simply too old. Boston needs to seize this opportunity. One championship is not enough if this team wants to be considered with the all time greats. If the Celtics play their game no one can stop them.
What are you hoping for out of the Celtics in 2010?

Marquis returning sooner than later.
That's one overlooked thing in this losing streak. If Daniels was healthy I think the Celtics win at least 2 of those games on the trip. Tony Allen was horrendous against Phoenix.
KG to get his lift back and Bill Walker to get some run.
Btw Karl I like your optimism for next year's chances to still win a title. Personally I just don't really see it without a major change being made....
With everyone healthy I think we have a great chance but we shall see.
