Comparison of the previous season and the current one so far, so people can calm down a bit. Losses and victories come and go.
57 - 23 Record for 2022/23 season and how Celtics fared month by month:

11 - 3 Record. How we are doing so far in the 2023/24 season:
| Month | Record | Win % | Lost to: |
|---|---|---|---|
| October | 3 - 0 | 100% | |
| November | 8 - 3 | 72.73% | Timberwolves 109 - 114 OT 76sers 103 - 106 Hornets 118 - 121OT |
| 2023 TOTAL | 11 - 3 | 78.57% | -– |
We have 4 games to go in November:
Bucks
Magic
Hawks
Bulls
And another 12 games in December.
To beat the previous year’s record we have to go at least 11 - 5 to score a total of 73.33% or 22 - 8, to end the year.
Games in December are against:
76sers
Cavaliers
Cavaliers
Magic B2B
Magic
Warriors
Kings B2B
Clippers
Lakers
Pistons
Raptors B2B
Spurs
You can make a forecast for which 5 games would be the ones where we will eat the loss, in order to beat the record of 2022 by a minimum.
From my perspective, we can beat them all, but let`s be real - so I say we could bow to the Bucks tonight (if we do the same as in the last 3 games + Bucks are on a hot streak), one of the Cavaliers` games, the first Magic game back-to-back, Kings on the back-to-back, Raptors back-to-back.
So guys chill, last year we lost 10 Games by New Year’s, this year we could potentially be on a better run.
FUN FACT: We have lost 3 games by a total margin of -11 points versus last year’s first 3 losses by -28 in total.

Important to note a section of December’s schedule is not yet created because of the in-season tournament results. So there’s like 4-5 more games in there.
I will be more optimistic and say that we are going on a streak tonight until Cavaliers games, we’ll drop one to Cavaliers and drop the Magic back to back. Then we’ll drop two more in the West coast. if those two losses will be against Warriors and Lakers then this sub will be shitting on the team until a new streak. I think we will be improving the overall record a little, just enough for the first seed. The test will be coming after that about how we close the series in the playoffs. I am not counting out Denver or any other team from the West that will beat them if we reach the finals, so it will be important not to drag any other series. If the team walks into playoffs with right habits and feels dominant (that wasn’t the case last year) I will take any loss and any record before that actually. Right now, there is room for criticism but also much more room for development then last year. We are not winning games just by historical shooting based on drive and kicks or hockey passes, there is more variant to our game already.
