Might as well put this in a new thread. NBCSports had time to kill so has an article on Strat-o-Matic simulating the 2017-18 assuming that GH didn't get injured. Results are here: https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/celtics/what-if-gordon-haywards-injury-never-happened-playing-out-celtics-2017-18-season?int
The overall results (I won't spoil) aren't surprising.
I will say that two stats from the replayed season stand out: GH would have shot 46.1% from 3P range, and JT would have ended up leading the NBA in 3P% at 56.1%. I'm guessing that JT standing in the corner in Brad's offense gets him a lot of open corner 3s.
I know we all think that season would have a been a ton of fun to watch (I can remember some of the pre-season threads). Alas . . . .
