    Jrue Holiday has been traded to the Boston Celtics, completing the Damian Lillard trade sage as the Blazers received their haul.

    The problem for Boston and just “getting another big body” is that guarding dame has never been about the actual defenders on him, it’s always been about the big men. If you don’t have a big who can move his feet on the perimeter (Anthony Davis) you have no shot at guarding him.
    Look at OKC with Steven adams and Jokic with Denver. Dame has brutalized them over and over because there is simply no guarding him once the screen at half court is set, unless you have a mobile big like draymond which is partly why the warriors have tortured dame so much. Jrue is a nice defender but even in his prime, he needed AD and rondo to completely blitz dame to shut him down, and that was when dames outlet pass was to Alfarouq aminu lol. Dwight Howard wouldn’t cut it. Dame has absolutely baptized Tingus Pingus a ton of times because watching KP try to meet dame at the level of the screen is like watching a deer shuffle on ice. No single defender will stop dame when the pickup point is half court. The big body Boston would get wouldn’t do a thing to slow down Giannis and it would just make the Celtics play drop against dame which is a disaster waiting to happen.

    Holiday Tatum and Brown had 50 point games last season. Porzingis had a 43 point career high game last season. I can't remember the last time or if ever we had four players that were able to do that on the Celtics.

    HOT TAKE I THINK CELTICS ACTIVELY GOT WORSE
    Celtics overreacted with the Jrue trade because they got afraid of Dame, and their matchup against the Bucks. But in that trade they depleted their paint defense and overall inside presence as well as got rid of virtually any scoring from the bench.
    They looked at the 2018 playoffs and Jrue "locking up Dame". The thing is Jrue didn't "lock him up". He was fantastic and guarded him like his life was on the line, but it was more of a team effort. AD, Rondo, and Jrue locked him up. NOT JRUE ON HIS OWN.
    In 2022 they guarded Giannis amazingly because they had Grant, Al, and Timelord and they still needed to double or triple-team him in the playoffs while Giannis still averaged 34/15/7
    On top of that, the only reason they were able to double and triple-team Giannis in the paint was because they could sag off on the perimeter. Jrue was struggling as a 2nd option (granted he was assigned the toughest matchup defensively making him depleted) Grayson was straight ass, could not create a shot for himself if his like was on the line, and Bucks' only ISO scorer and best shooter from beyond the arc was out.
    THEY TOOK THEM TO 7 DESPITE THAT
    Boston lost their best Giannis defender in Grant Williams this off-season. They lost their only true center in Timelord. They lost 6MOTY Malcolm Brogdon and DPOY Marcus Smart but got in return Jrue. After the trade, they arguably have just as good of a perimeter defense as before (definitely better with the one-on-one matchups as Jrue is better in that regard than Smart but that's beside the point), but gotten significantly worse inside this off-season.
    C's defense will be very stretched against a team like the Bucks when Khris, Dame, Pat/Beasley, Brook, and Giannis are on the floor. You need at least one person to guard each one of these guys as each one can shoot (aside from Giannis). Best case scenario you sag off on Pat or Beasley and you just hope that they don't have a good shooting night. This same thing applies to a team like The Nuggets or 76ers (if they trade Harden for something significant)
    When Giannis / Jokic / Embiid drive into the lane you need to either double-team them or triple-team them (depending on your defensive personnel). That strategy works just fine IF THE TEAM HAS NO SHOOTERS OR THOSE SHOOTERS STRUGGLE MAJORLY. You cannot do that with a team like The Nuggets that have Murray, MPJ, and KCP, or The Bucks with Dame, Khris, and Brook on the floor. I would even argue you can't do that with teams like the Cavs, Lakers, Kings, or Heat.
    The amount of teams with good offensive centers or power forwards in the EAST ALONE is crazy. (Bucks, 76ers, Cavs, Knicks, Heat, Magic) Why would Boston bank on Al Horford and Tingus Pingus to be a dominant defensive backcourt is beyond my understanding of the game.
    On top of that THEY HAVE NO FUCKING BENCH. Boston has virtually no scoring from the bench. The only guy on that roster who will not be starting and can average 10 points is Derrick White. So in case he turns into 6MOTY and starts going for 20 to make up for the loss of Brogdon, I have no idea who will be their bench scorer.
    Al Horford can't reliably guard dominant bigs like Giannis / Jokic / Embiid (he's 37 for fucks sake). He needs a second guy to help him and keep him reasonably fresh for the playoffs. KP could have been that guy if he never blew up his ACL. He is big, can play center, and is a decent shot blocker (he's 7'3 it would be a miracle if he wasn't) but he is a glass cannon and overall not that good of a defender either. The only reason he is regarded as one is because he is 7'3 and shocker, it's hard to get around a guy like that in the paint. Both of these guys can get injured and miss the playoffs. Horford will be 38 by the time ECF rolls. There was only a handful of players in HISTORY to play meaningful minutes at age 38. There is no indication that KP will suddenly not be injury-prone and have a stellar season.
    If they bank their chances of stopping those bigs with a glass knee tingus pingus and a center that was born when the USSR was still around and Ronald Regan was in office. Then I like the chances of everyone else.
    Boston's perimeter defense will be fantastic. But they have no inside presence to reliably guard dominant bigs. Their defensive personnel diminished like crazy and their bench unit is virtually non-existent at this point without a scoring punch from there. They are relying on 37-year-old player and a notorious health avoider Tingus Pingus to be a dominant backcourt and anchor their defense in the paint. The only thing they have going for themselves right now is the amazing scoring duo in the starting lineup and great perimeter/wing defense as well as great spacing on offense IF KP IS HEALTY
    I DON'T BUY THAT

  • @keith7261
    @keith7261 Před 7 měsíci +2

    Imo, this helps the Celtics offense significantly. In a way, the offense kinda mirrors the Bucks with Jrue. KP and Brook as stretch 5’s who protect the rim well, dwhite and Grayson Allen being off-ball shooters (albeit, GA is a better shooter) who can defend and handle the ball. Brown and Middleton being the second options who do well at creating shots (middleton is significantly better in pnr, but brown is more athletic and elite in transition), and Tatum & Giannis as the stars who have probably the most difference between them; no one is matching Giannis going downhill, but Tatum significantly increased his free throws and finishes around the rim.
    Im not saying those two rosters are the same, or that the results are gonna be similar, but I say it because I think its gonna help Jrue Holiday fit in seamlessly with the C’s. Tatum & Jrue pnr is gonna feed families.
    Honestly the coolest part of the trade is that the Celtics have a Jrue and Dwhite backcourt, so opposing teams offenses’ will be in Alcatraz💀😭
