A player calls out Warriors’ strange strategy as ‘disrespectful’
Boston — In the opening minutes of the Celtics versus Warriors game, Jaylen Brown was repeatedly left wide open for a jump shot.
Though Draymond Green would periodically inch closer to challenge him, in the end, he was happy to just allow Brown continue to get
easy shots.Since it was Brown’s first experience with the defensive strategy, he acknowledged that it took him a moment to get used to
it. However, he exacted revenge on the Warriors for abandoning him by scoring 19 points on 5 of 9 3-point attempts in the opening
quarter. It got to the point where their approach backfired and he continued to make shots even after the Warriors tightened up on
him.Brown remarked, “I get to the paint and I usually open it up for everyone else,” following the C’s decisive victory over the
Warriors. However, we can also shoot if you challenge me to do so. It seemed a little rude to me. However,
we capitalized on it and
retaliated against them.Coach Joe Mazzulla of the Celtics expressed gratitude for the defensive coverage they observed. Whether it’s
during the regular season or the postseason, that will be the C’s way of life moving forward. There will be changes made over a seven-
game series in an effort to challenge the C’s superiority. Thus, having the flexibility to adjust quickly is essential for a team that hopes
to make the playoffs. Teams will come up with inventive ways to slow down the league-best Celtics, even if they don’t leave an All-Star
spot empty.
If the Warriors simply continued leaving Brown free, the C’s were also in favor of his letting it rip. Brown attempted 12 field goals in
the first quarter alone because of this. After the game, Stephen Curry said that it was discouraging to watch Brown make shot after
shot, particularly when the Garden audience became engrossed in the contest.
The Warriors never recovered after that, and the game continued to escalate. With 6:05 remaining in the first quarter, the score was
knotted 21–21, but the C’s stormed to a 23–1 run to close the quarter. In less than 40 seconds, Brown made three consecutive 3-
pointers to start the stretch. From then on, the Celtics’ early third-quarter bench clearing made for an absolute joke.
