A breakdown of how a 66 game season will work

There it is… the dreaded "back-to-back-to-back" scenario.  

The Celtics were terrible.. HORRIBLE… last season in back to backs.  Now you're going to add one more to that mix?  That's bad news. If there are three?  Those are six games you can already look at as potential losses.  In a 66 game schedule.. that's a big number.

Worse news, though, is a second round back-to-back situation.  I can live with that in the regular season.  But that is going to make the road to any possible title very difficult.

I hope I'm wrong, I'm definitely on the negative side when it comes to how this schedule will affect the Celtics.  It's just not looking good right now.
