Even though last season did not go as planned for the Boston Celtics, owner Wyc Grousbeck is pleased with his team's newest acquisitions and believes the team has plenty of potential.

Grousbeck spoke on the Celtic's composition and his thoughts on the upcoming season with Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe:

“I’m as frustrated as I’ve ever been in 16 years. I was back then [but] now we’ve added these guys and some rookies and there’s a renewed sense of energy and optimism on the team. They’ve got to make it happen. “We’ve sold out the season. We’ve sold all the [season] tickets. The fans have been great. The fans are ready for this team and we’re going to give them a show. I will say that, as a point I’d like to make, but I do think we’ve got a new cast of characters and we’ve got Marcus [Smart], Gordon, Jaylen, and Jayson, hopefully, will continue their growth and if they grow and Kemba and Enes come in and some rookies help out in spot duty, it could be a good team. I’m really hoping for it. I can’t wait.”

The Celtics never really got it going last season after many predicted them to be the East's champion. The team was dysfunctional and went through roller-coaster ups and downs.

With Kyrie Irving and Al Horford gone, the team has rebuilt with Kemba Walker and will rely on in team growth. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are expected to take steps. Gordon Hayward should be back at nearly full strength.

The Celtics season holds plenty of promise on the backs of Walker and the talented young players.
