Celtics players discuss their New Year's resolutions
Before the clock ticks over to 2014, some Boston players talked about their lofty New Year's resolutions:
Gerald Wallace's New Years resolution is for Jeff Green to make the All-Star team.

Sullinger's New Years resolution is to win the Atlantic and make the playoffs.

And of course, Hump being Hump:
Kris Humphries philosophized on New Years resolutions: "I think everybody should make improvements every day ... Write that down."

Wallace's resolution is a nice thought, but it'll be hard to find a spot on the All-Star roster with players like LeBron, Carmelo, Chris Bosh, Paul George and Roy Hibbert all sure to gobble up the forward spots. Not to say Green isn't deserving, but if he is, so is Philly's Thaddeus Young. Green is averaging 16.2 ppg and 4.6 rpg as well as shooting 39.6 percent from the three-point line in around 33 minutes per contest. Young is averaging 17.6 ppg and 6.9 rpg as well as shooting 43.3 percent from the three-point line in around 33 minutes per contest.
As for Sullinger, got to admire the guy's drive. He never says quit. And as bad as the East is this year, his resolution doesn't look too improbable.
