I love great defense and watching this team on that side of the ball makes me giddy. So long and athletic forcing teams into really bad shots. Keep it fellas!

They are a fun group to watch on the defensive end.  Great to see Kyrie playing with effort on both ends.  Semi deserves credit for his D on the Greak freak early in the 4th quarter.  As usual Horford made all the right plays.  Most importantly our defensive rebounding has been elite this season!

Horford had a great game both offensively and defensively.

I remember one sequence where Shemi Ojele actually forced Giannis away from the drive and then into a bad fadeaway jumper that missed.  That was quite a defensive sequence for the young Celtic!!

Celtics really capitalized on this in the 4th quarter.  And selfless passing got Big Al some wide open 3s and he cashed in big time.  Really enjoyed tonights game vs Bucks!

Brad figured out how to defend the Bucks.

I think everyone forgets what it's like to watch a team that isn't undersized lol.

We outrebound teams and get steals and out in transition.  It's fun.  Kyrie is what he s on defense, but even his size difference and capability at times being the smallest guy on the floor is a big change.

Horford has been excellent.  Tatum has been good.  I expected some offense from him but defense rebounding has been great to see.
