150: Kevin Pelton | Boston Celtics Recap v. Orlando Magic, Toronto Raptors & Phoenix Suns | Marcus Smart Struggles | Re-Signing Jared Sullinger

Happy Easter! The Boston Celtics have righted the ship recently with some easy wins over some lackluster foes in the Philadelphia 76ers, Orlando Magic, and the Kyle Lowry-less Toronto Raptors.  LHR recaps the week that was including Saturday night’s contest against the Phoenix Suns in the 150th episode of Celtics Beat.

Kevin Pelton of ESPN is this week’s featured guest on this Easter Sunday edition of Celtics Beat.  While the Celts have righted the ship to an extent, fans and media members alike have gotten a bit antsy over Marcus Smart’s shooting woes to say the least.  How is this affecting Smart’s development? Will this allow him to live up to expectations of being the sixth overall pick or should they be quelled a bit? And what about other contributors to this Boston team and their situations going forward? For example, what will it take for the Celtics to re-sign a guy like Jared Sullinger?

No Around the NBA in 5 again, however with Pelton in the house -- there’s plenty of talk about the greatest team in NBA history.  Mr. Pelton once ranked the 1986 Boston Celtics as the second best team in NBA history.  What calculations brought him to that conclusion and where will the 2016 Golden State Warriors fit in that debate when it’s all said and done?
