Boston played beautifully. Here are two key reasons they won.
1. When Tatum drove, two or three Warriors surrounded him. He made excellent passes to the open man in the corner, either Horford or Smart or White. They had open looks and drained 3s.
2. The Dubs were lethargic and slow on O. Except for Steph they couldn't shake the Celtics' D. Once the Cs decided to play tight 1 on 1 switching D, no one other than Curry could shake free. Thompson was negated, Poole looked like an amateur, Green threw up bricks, the Dubs' motion O was disrupted bigtime. Few layups, not many O rebounds.
The Celtics made the Dubs look old, slow, small, and disorganized. What grreat D and great passing! Warrior TOs are terrible..
Klay looked wooden out there. He doesn't have the handles to take it to the hoop or even to create his own shot. His D didn't impress me either.
While I admire his passion and great D, I'm getting tired of Draymond's loud mouth, complaining to the refs, and self-promotion.
I now expect the Celts to win the series in 6 -- unless Kerr comes up with some masterstroke adjustment. I love theWarriors and their incredible motion O, but was astonished how the Celtics took them apart in Q4. 40 to 16! Even with the Dubs' hot start, Boston was not far behind. Bostons' subs are far better than the Warriors' subs.
