The Boston Celtics have a way to beat every team in the NBA. They can play with double bigs with an oversized backcourt against teams with beefier frontcourt players and larger guards. They can play small and fast when that approach to a scoring-first lineup is the way to go to secure a win.
And they have a plethora of options to attack opponents with on offense, from a slower, halfcourt style that tends to be most effective in postseason play, to a transition-heavy approach to keep pace with younger ball clubs with fewer tools to attack the Celtics with. We of course know they can also simply bury opposing teams with an attack from beyond the arc. And when it comes to defense, man-to-man can be the primary approach, as can a switching defense, zones, or pretty much anything else you can think of.
The hosts of the CLNS Media "First to the Floor" podcast, Jake Issenberg, Ben Vallis, and Wayne Spooney, took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk it over. Check it out below!
