Hopeful End To Strange Season

These were the 42-Minute Wonders. The team of young talent and one superstar that gave us the glimpse of what might be for precisely 42 minutes each game (or thereabouts). As Doc Rivers correctly pointed after his squad's season-ending 95-78 win over the Heat, the C's were great for all but the last 6 minutes of most games. But the youth and inexperience caught up with them in the end--literally.

This was the year we saw the future. And that future is extremely bright.
