I always hated this scheme

Someone who knows ball help me understand what defense strategy Thibs is doing here? Seems pretty clear you can’t trap Tatum on the pick and roll.

Celtics don't miss. It is what it is.

Gotta play switch defense on Boston and force them to play 1on1. This drop defense is pants.

this is a disgrace of coaching

team is not prepared

To be absolutely fair the Celtics are in a tier by themselves.

They are really really really good.

Maybe Johnny Bryant Handled the Defense.....

First 3 he hit looked decent off a c&s

And we about to give up the most 3s ever in GAME ONE????

Far be it for me to defend him, but this isn't a KAT problem. This is a wing issue. I don't think I've ever seen a team so hot from 3 point range.

Offense will come along just fine as the season progresses but our defense is struggling and is a huge question mark. The rotations are just not there. Seems like there is zero communication on this side of the floor. This is a Thibs team at the end of the day so I fully expect them to figure this out as well.

Doubling as if they not shooting lights out they picking us apart it’s a mix of coaching and effort.

24-40 from 3?? It’s still the third quarter

WTH is that a record?

No one is defending the three point line at all
