TP for sharing.
Those stats do shed some light on what's going on. The Celts have a top ranked defense overall that doesn't feel quite so elite when the game is tight in the 4th quarter. This proves that that perception is accurate.
Yeah, I think we've all felt that, right? I'll never forget that '08 team that felt like they could shut down anyone whenever they wanted. As good as this Celtics team has been, statistically, I (and most of us) have very little confidence in their getting stops when they need it.
Is that the result of a solid scheme without the effort of the players behind it?
