How The Warriors Gameplan vs The Celtics Backfired Miserably : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nNVjiMqDlquUZ5s.html

Good video. It's nice to see someone actually talk concepts and show film instead of just repeating the same tired talking points that you see in places like ESPN.

Porzingis really is a game changer. The Mavericks wasted him like the Bulls wasted Markkanen

If Kristaps Porzingis stay healthy this season & consistent 2024 playoffs Boston big chance get #18 banner 💪💪💪

This is why Brad Stevens had that big dopey grin during the press conference introducing KP

The offense is basically using Jayson and Jaylen as decoys, which allows Porzingis and White to get very easy looks. And if they close on White and Porzingis, then Jayson and Jaylen have the ultimate advantage. Nothing more potent than having your Star players play off the ball

KP IS their offense. very evident in this breakdown. but without him, their roster is about the same as last 2 seasons and winning by defense. it's insane how Brad built this team

I never get tired of KP, a 7 footer, hitting step back 3s...just absurd.

Would like to give credits to the OG KZfaq analyst Coach Daniel for the outlier idea, can only wish to be near Daniel's level of basketballs X and O's understanding. Slow and steady steps.

6:20 can we talk about how that wasn’t a foul when he just straight shoved zingy lmao

The way the Celtics runs their new player's especially KP is actually amazing.

Nice analysis and video, one of the best Ive seen thank you.

first video of yours i've watched - subscribed immediately upon completion. just fantastic analysis - really helped me better understand the finer points of this offense.

I didnt think i would care much to go in depth into concepts, but you explained things very well. Well done mate great video

Great stuff. To watch a different breakdown with different interpretations of offense and defensive plays almost makes me want to try my hand at video games.

Great breakdown! Loved it

Great analysis. Subscribed.

this video stands alone as the most educative and efficient basketball concept video ive ever seen

Honestly really good analysis my man.

Nice content 👌🏿 keep up the good work💪🏿‼️

Tingus Pingus truly a great signing for Boston

Great video, you explain all the decisions and mistakes very well! One thing that keeps annoying me is the moving screens. Especially the one by Tatum for white at 4:30.

Nice job on these videos.

Very good analysis👍

KP was such a huuuge pick up.. holiday too he’s defending great and he hits those 3’s

great analysis! what was the background music btw ?

Who tf let kristaps slip to celtics he was always gonna kill it… hope he stays healthy

All the Jalen Brown misses in this had me rolling. 😂😂

As a rabid amateur [ok since 80s] fan this was an extremely helpful tutorial for me. Lately Ive been focused on one player at a time, rotating. But you really don’t miss the entire game. I have not missed one Center game this season. Wish I could watch more match ups but I can only afford what's free on cable

That point about the half court offense at the end of the video is so spot on. Mazulla is using the role players more actively even if Tatum and Brown are still carrying most of the scoring load, I’m so glad they’ve moved past the Jays playing hero ball everynight

Great analysis

Love your breaks down did you formally coach at any level?

What made the Celtics a much improved team is they are protecting the ball and they aren't average many TO during games, and they have improved playing more consistent basketball versus getting lazy and losing games they should win. Overall i see the Celtics going far unless they become their own worst enemy at this point

The problem is the Celtics do not use all their bench players in the playoffs like they do during the season. This is why they lost last year. This is why Tatum turned his ankle. They've got to use these bench players in the playoffs the same way they do during the season. They do that and run the way they do nobody can beat them. Use the bench players the Peyton pritchard, Sam howser, Al horford etc and when I say this is why Tatum sprained his ankle, it's a long season if they had used their bench more he may not have turned his ankle! Go Green Machine Go Celtics!

great video

6:09 KP looks so goofy in reverse

6:16 KP moving screen (unintentionally) Duncan threw a fit lol

Can you do a video showing how the Celtics could improve some late game offense? They are a lot better than previous years but still sometimes get bogged down and lose that diversity in their offense that you talk about here.

I’m a Celtics fan and I love this team with all my heart but sometimes they are very frustrating to watch because of their shot selection. We constantly settle for tough contested shots rather than getting the ball to the open man. If this Celtics team hunted great shots rather than settling they would be unstoppable. But make no mistake I still think they’re the best team in the NBA and I also believe they’ll win the championship this year, especially considering how good they are on defense

The Celtics have only lost 1!!! Game this season when they didn't sit one of the first 6 players in their rotation The Celtics give one of Tatum, brown, porzingus, jrue, white or horford a rest EVERY GAME and STILL dominate

ALL teams can run pick and rolls and do similar stuff to what the Celts are doing. The main point is that the entire starting 5 of the Celtics are full spectrum threats. They can all shoot from 3. They can all make mid-range jumpers, and they can all drive to the basket and finish. More than that, they are all willing passers. You have to defend the guy with the ball, the guys cutting to the basket, and the shooters standing behind the 3 point line ready to catch and shoot. A perfectly committed defense can definitely give the Celts trouble. But this takes endless effort and constant awareness of what the Celtics are doing. The slightest slip up, and they get an easy score. If you don't play defense, as the Grizzlies recently failed to do, you get blown out by 50 points.

I guess their offense gets them a lot of open threes, like the previous playoffs. Let's just hope they don't fold like that again, and find ways to get easier shots in the paint

Then todays Warriors v Celtics game, 88 - 140.

Boston’s good we get it.

Celtics are 18th in assists and top 5 in every deadclock stat (postup/iso/clutch) I wouldn’t really call them a 0.5 conceptual team but yh they have a LOT of weapons. Very dangerous team

Oldhead: " you just need to clothesline them"

Why does their offense fall apart in the clutch against good defenses? I dont trust them in the playoffs. They may overwhelm everyone with their talent, but if the games get tight I expect them to lose.

nice - until in the playoffs mazulla forgets how to call a timeout, tatum how to get to the rim and brown how to dribble with the left hand

Tatum is only 19 🗣️

Who's here after the Warriors got blown out by 52 points

If the Celtics don’t at least make the finals, Jaylen Brown is gone and Mazzullla might be too.

And my C’s ☘️ will still lose before the finals.

If the Celtics don’t win the championship this year then they ain’t gonna win it any time soon all I’m saying is yall better watch out for my cavs they’re coming for that number 1 spot

But did the celtics win tho?

its just nba players playing bad defense, no hands up, slow on the close out, 2 same play defending the same way.

The Celtic choke this postseason will be 🤌🏼

Lol! This offense is nothing new for the Celtics. Overall, they are shooting a bunch of 3s from simple screen and pop/roll. With an elite team with great coaching ( except Doc Rivers and the Bucks), those 3s will come far and between. Celtics need to prove they can score when those 3s fall flat in a 6-7 game series.

Im tired of tatum and brown missing 3s we need them to see this video so they learn how lethal they are i dint think they know

sadly, they will again be eliminated by the Heat in the playoffs.

wait till they face the heat in the playoffs lol

The Cs are like the Buffalo Bills. All the talent you could ask for, none of the grit.

The three most important players are Tatum, Porzingis and White. The Celtics are far worse when white is off the court. Don’t forget that idiot mazzulla had him on the bench during crunch time for games 1 and 2 of the ECF.

Glad I can't stand basketball

The obvious counter to all this is forcing the ball into Jaylen Brown's hands. He's the lowest IQ player in terms of passing, and he's shooting 34 percent from 3. Or they could hack him at the end of games and make him shoot FT's at his 70 percent clip. I love how he misses all his shots in these highlights.

NBA boring

Celtics not built for playoffs. All they do is punch the ball on defense and settle for 3s in playoffs. That and Tatum becomes a gunner.

None of this matters. The Boston Celtics has been at least in the top 5 of the Eastern Conference since Tatum and Brown has be teamed together. Only one time that they wasn't .only wanna see can they win a championship and it's probably a no

Really? 45 3-pointers attempted per game will prevent them from reaching the Finals. Clippers can defeat them in a playoff series.

Yeah that's great, just like Embiid the Celts' offense is PERFECTLY catered for the REGULAR season. They rank dead last in drives to the basket, and still live & die by the 3. This formula does not work in a 7-game series in the playoffs. They haven't learned anything from the past years' failures, and are looking for another disappointing exit. Combine with the fact that Tatum was never able to take his game to another level (and unfortunately never will at this point)
