Confident guard play

[rollie mass]

Both Rozier and Marcus in different ways both offensively and defensively made Cleveland look old.Marcus can post up and Roziers unique ball handling is a delight to watch as he uses his long arms and burst.They both have motors with overdrive for 4th quarters.Smart has a deceptive length hidden by his physique and both of our guards rebound.

There is a Kobe video dissecting the Celtics defense from a Lebron point of view with all the deception and holding off using certain moves while probing for weakness --this visual display of the thinking by a superstar was in three parts posted on Reddit.This analysis of how Lebron thinks and reacts which  was reinforced by Lebron at the podium claiming a game of reconnaissance

It also seems they don't have a TJ  McConnell type of guard to harass Rozier

I thought this was the key to the game. Neither guy had a great shooting game, but when they move the ball like that, Horford, Brown, Tatum and Morris are impossible to guard.
