Celtics have what it takes on paper to win the whole thing.
It’s just the little things they seem to mess up. They lost the game before on a Dean Wade outback . Then decide not to box out AG as well
AG in the dunker. Three 40% three point shooters on the floor. This is a checkmate and why they won a title and why they’re going to be so hard to deny again.
Jokic at the top, he’s going to put his man in the rim, so you have to help.
Murray will flare to the 3 so it can’t be Jaylen, MPJs man has no help responsibility. So that leaves Tatum & Jrue. Whoever is protecting the rim, the other guy has to seal AG, but this causes another problem.
Tatum is late here (he & Jrue have to rotate at the EXACT same time) but even if he’s on time, you’re leaving KCP wide open, which is the checkmate.
The math would tell you a dunk is a 100% shot, an open jumper from anyone anywhere on the court is much lower than that, so you give up the jumper.
And that’s the only adjustment you can make when Denver runs this every single time down the court
You gotta concede something, and it’s a wide open corner 3.
And you’ll probably lose like that.

had to learn is that Luka is above slander and criticism. At least from the vast majority of this thread.
