love this team,legit one of the few teams i believe doesnt lose games but more so give the wins to other teams (due to the nature of 3s there will be games where u brick yourself out of a W )
@@basketballreachI dont think cutting down the 3s will do Celtics any help. They are a shooting team and if you're gonna beat them in a 7 game...you will need to make them have a bad shooting night 4 out of 3 times(very much impossible). The only thing stoping this team is injuries to 3 of their 5 starters.
As a Celtics fan they are definitely fun to watch and their bench is so deep. They can sometimes beat themselves. Sometimes the shots just aren’t falling but right now they look dang near unbeatable in a best of 7.
The only thing that annoys me is when they’re not falling I feel like they don’t adjust and start going to the rim for a little for easy buckets. But as a Celtics fan I still feel we will go back 2 back
And what people don't seem to understand is that Brown is still playing under his standards and KP ain't even at 60% probably. Fully healthy Boston team ain't getting beaten in a 7 game series, simple as that. They are still the 2nd best team in the NBA at WORST without their all star level Center in KP, which is just crazy. And the most scary part about them is that if they go cold in a game, teams somehow still can't find a way to beat them (usually). Having a flame thrower in Pritchard off the bench who saved them a few times already and shoots 43% from 3 8 attemps is borderline unfair as well, especially since the team is already really good. But the rest of the bench is really good as well. If Porzingis can stay somewhat healthy Boston is repeating, no doubt about that.
I know you said Kornet may not get playing time, however I think they'll want to limit Porzingis and Horford during the regular season, so look for them to be getting maybe 22-28 mins and Queda and Kornet getting a bit of time or giving them off nights here and there. It's good to keep those guys fresh, also they will be having a bunch of junk time basketball too. No need to risk Porzingis injury or running Horford into the ground when you can give Queda and Kornet minutes. It's an embarrassment of riches right now
They have like 8 or 9 guys who can hit from beyond the arc, so teams always have to have bodies on the perimeter. But cheat on defense too much, and you got guys who can drive to the basket for an easy 2. This is a tough team to beat. The only way to beat them is to pray that you play perfect defense all night and out shoot them from the 3pt line as well. Tough task for any team.
Despite the result, Clippers defense did came through and held the Celtics to 21 and 27 points in the 1st and 3rd quarter (4th was pure garbage time but was 27 again). Thats an under 100 pace. That 2nd quarter 3pt flurry is an NBA record, it wont happen on a regular basis. And when you look at those 3s, only one or two were wide open, the rest were at least lightly contested.
Everyone is talking about the 3 pointers, which is certainly historic. But the 2 reasons the Celts dominate is their defense, and that they have 8 guys who can drive the lane. Driving the lane opens up the 3 pointers.
Haters are pointing out the Celtics 3 point shooting when in reality, GSW has been chucking 3’s and no one complained. It just so happened that ALMOST ALL Celtics players have very good 3 point shooting. Kornet and NQ are the only ones I know who does not take 3’s. This just exposes the lazy defense of other teams by not guarding behind the arc.
Hack a Celt I would like to see teams play extremely physical and slow down the game to a halt. Always keep 1 or 2 guys on the floor just for fouling. These 2 would storm the ball handler and reach-in, hand check, slap the hand, hold, pull the jersey, impede movement, push, trip - whatever it takes trying to steal the ball. How the math works? Refs will not call everything, and if you can get around 30 stops by doing this and have them shoot free throws every other possession, then you are looking at 130-140 free throws - or 110ish points with 80% FT%. Thats manageable. I believe these numbers are still generous, and refs would call even less fouls. If it actually works, the NBA will finally be forced to do something about the 3 point era, cause these games will be even more unwatchable.
Man I want to say some really nasty things about the lightskin dude S Curry but the woke youtube sensor bot will just delete it but he did ruin the game forever and it is boring as hell to watch these dudes just throwing 3s all game yuck.
Who would you give the best chance to beat the Celtics in a 7 game playoff series 👀
Cleveland
No one
@@playforfun9762👀👀👀
@@Velveteenvision😅😅😅
the celtics themselves. fully healthy? i'm not taking anyone vs. the celtics in a 7-game series.
Shout out to Jordan Walsh’s dunk in that game.
😅😅
Celtics scored 51 in 2Q. Clippers 49 at halftime. 😂
My bad 🤦♂️😭
☘️💚
@@tim.noonanjust a simple mistake, not that serious
With Horford, Pritchard, and Hauser off the bench they have 8 great 3 point shooters.
Facts it’s scary hours in Bean Town
Thats what i am saying, shi is borderline cheating
i wouldn't call them all "great" but more than capable for sure, all 8.
love this team,legit one of the few teams i believe doesnt lose games but more so give the wins to other teams (due to the nature of 3s there will be games where u brick yourself out of a W )
Yeah, that’s the only thing with this team but if they just cut down a little bit, they could be so much more effective and win those games as well

Boston Celtics back-to-back champion 🏆💯
Looking pretty good night now
People were saying that the morning after they won. Let’s go Celtics 💯
As a Celtics fan they are definitely fun to watch and their bench is so deep. They can sometimes beat themselves. Sometimes the shots just aren’t falling but right now they look dang near unbeatable in a best of 7.
They need to reignite their lockdown D - they have the personnel and schemes, especially for games where the 3 is off.
The Celts can't be beat with KP. And they almost can't be beat even without him.
Excellent commentary. Thanks.
Thanks man and yes I is looking that way
Celtics is like a beer. Celtics with KP is beer + snacks.
It’s been 1 game… do we not remember the bucks smoking them last year? The bucks were a mess…
@@adamsecord9943 1 time
@ in correct because every other time the bucks won it last by 3 without giannis….
The only thing that annoys me is when they’re not falling I feel like they don’t adjust and start going to the rim for a little for easy buckets. But as a Celtics fan I still feel we will go back 2 back
Basically kp coming back just showed yall that all yall ain’t shyt and that the teams that beat us were extremely and I mean extremely lucky

Yup they lucky brown still playing under himself

No need to risk Porzingis injury or running Horford into the ground when you can give Queda and Kornet minutes. It's an embarrassment of riches right now
Plus Mazzula is changing Kornet-Queta-Tillman minutes depending on matchups, that's gonna keep happening
Why does everyone keep saying it’s the 3rd quarter when we scored 51 points it was the 2nd not the 3rd.. we scored 78 by halftime

That's the fun part, the celtics don't even look at who is defending them some games and just win or lose by their own shot making
There is no 3rd term in basketball and it was the 2nd quarter. Come on man
Lmao
That's why we are hanging #18!! 🏀🏀
THIS IS WHAT YALL CELTICS HATERS GET☘️🏆☘️
(Not saying you are hating, but a lot of people have been hating after Celtics won the chip)
Now I want to see the big lineup, KP, Q, H, JT and JB and the super sized line up, KP, Q, H, JT and Kornet on the floor
Everyone is talking about the 3 pointers, which is certainly historic. But the 2 reasons the Celts dominate is their defense, and that they have 8 guys who can drive the lane. Driving the lane opens up the 3 pointers.
all 5 and they are 8 three point snipers deep

THE ROLLING ARSENAL OF THE BLACK BEAUTY!!!
The version of the Celtics are the greatest team of all time, better than the KD Warriors
Debatable but it says a lot that it can even be debated
THE CELTICS BABY!!!!!
🔥🔥🔥
The Green is 6 or 7 deep for 3-point shooters, mate.
OMG those uniforms are fire 🔥😮😊
Looks normal or basic
💚LFG!! REPEAT!!!

Damn that’s crazy 😂
😢😘🍀
They already have and it don’t work
Hack a Celt? Against the top 3 team in FT%? Lol. Jrue, Pritch, and DWhite are 87+%FT shooters.
Man I want to say some really nasty things about the lightskin dude S Curry but the woke youtube sensor bot will just delete it but he did ruin the game forever and it is boring as hell to watch these dudes just throwing 3s all game yuck.
Cavs are not leading the most 3 pointers in the lead
