StojkoVrankovic · RIP texas celtic, 12/10/14 - 12/10/14

just an absolute bull level of defense, not even pretending to play any

Bruh this drop coverage defense is trash, smart gets screened and it’s over because Al is in the paint. Guards are getting cooked way too easily defensively.

If we continue to defend him like this, yeah.

Ball movement and defense terrible so far.

Quit going under the screen please.

And someone put Harden on his ass.

Philly started hot, fast and ready to shoot from 3 which is to be expected.

Good timeout from Joe now he's seen what they're doing, we need to make an adjustment to our defense.

I love how guards casually just dribble to 10 feet with zero resistance.

For a team that supposedly has good defensive guards we sure suck at guarding the perimeter.

London2Boston · Post #214 » by **London2Boston** » Mon May 1, 2023 11:42 pm

We really need to come up with a new scheme for stopping Guards in the post season. Butler, Curry , Trae and now Harden in back to back series having their way.

Boston is terrible at defending the 3. Not sure what I expected to change with this series.

the ball has been moving, and been assisted on almost all of the shots I think.

Celtics should definitely be shooting better than 85%..

Uh, so not feeling to defend tonight? Oh boy, gonna be a loooooong night.

VeryMuchWoke · Post #219 » by **VeryMuchWoke** » Mon May 1, 2023 11:42 pm

Why the **** don't we just switch everything? Garden, Maxey and Harris aren't going to beat us with isos.

Celtics shooting 86% with 5 assists on 6 baskets.

Celtics are playing “I hope they miss” defense
