Man I would just love the NBA to allow the players to get this physical with offensive players. Literally makes the game more exciting . Look how hard KD had to work just to crate a bit of space. That and along with the amount of wing defenders the Celtics had is a nightmare for any elite scorer like KD
The Celtics got the best defence in the league and it's good to see that the team isn't depending on one player, everyone contributes on every single aspect of the game, the only ones at this level are the warriors but still the celtics are a step infront with this ridiculous defence
That's a very bold statement I think the warriors are better. If there wasn't so many injuries they would struggle to get past the bucks in the next round
That Warriors death lineup of Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole and Draymond Green is terrifying, those 5 players on the floor all together create an offense as deadly as the Kevin Durant warriors. I don’t know if any defense will be able to stop that.
@@zoomzoom3839 they can stopped it with jt, jb, smart, horford and timellord, the big question also is.. How they can stopped jt, jb and horford posting up low.. The players u mentioned r too small for horford.. And with timelord at the paint to alter shots. Lol ur poibt is clueless
@@sergiodarosa1034 no he means defense. Warriors might arguably be the overall better team but the Cs definitely have a better defensive system + defensive players.
Good idea of sharing this video with general public. I think one or two CZcams users will search for amazing Celtics D performance vs superstar and hopefully algorithm won't fail in recommending them this one. More people need to see your edits!
what was y’all’s favorite game to watch this series. as great as the ending to game 1 was, i gotta go with game 2. celtics trail through the 3rd quarter and hit all those crazy shots in the 4th to win
@@indoraylo I wish I could claim I noticed it but someone pointed it out to me. I never really understood the phrase "felt like someone walked over my grave" but watching the sliding door moment of that bounce really got me to get that.
whats insane is we haven't seen too much of RW3 for the limited time we did see him: his blocks seem like more of a last resort on defence, showing that Brooklyn didn't get very far through the C's defensive line
Your playoff highlights have been interesting to me because I've watched the games live with Anderson and Van Gundy commentating the national broadcast and now I get to see the same plays with Scal and Gorman. Where do you watch/record the games? Here in Ireland I haven't been able to find any "local" broadcasts.
@@hawks19_65 that’s the only way to stop KD. Gotta double team him and the rest of the nets are mediocre. Especially with Kyrie betraying them like he did the Celtics lol
This defense reminded me of Draymond Green's defense on Kevin Durant in the 2016 conference finals last 3 games. Those were the few of the worst games that Durant played till then. But this defense is even better than that by 5x to 10x.
This defense is incredibly talented. You have the "Smother Brothers" (Smart and Robert Williams) who we all knew were good defensively. But Tatum and brown are playing at a really high level defensively this year as well. Horford's always been defensive guy. I think the starting 5 fall under the "Smother Brothers" umbrella now... and White and G.Williams are right there.
They are going to do the same thing to Giannis, the Celtics didn’t just guard Durant they went one step further and smothered him, they suffocated him and wore him down with double teams and just flat out physically, that is the only way to defend players of that caliber you have to be physical and force them to constantly work, wear them down.
JT and JB were the Celtics best defenders and offensive players for the Celtics in this series. Those 2 are going to bring the Celtics a chip and have their jerseys retired.
Credit to Boston but man james harden leaving hurt so bad bro they had like 8 games together before the playoffs with that new team and kd had just came back shit wasn’t even right that season kyrie was gone ime was the coach it was set for boston to win man they should have won it all
This loss definitely was needed for them to be humble. KD and Kyrie really thought they were gonna dominate the East.. ha alright buddy better luck next year
Tbh i was having a heart attack when kyrie abused tatum and kd abusing brown. Great defenders but somehow brown couldnt guard kd and tatum couldnt guard kyrie.
ı think Durant ball handler not elite level like guard , they attack him while he attack and sometimes he pushed so much midrange, he need to shoot three more.
KD looked like a rookie for 3 of the 4 games. I’ve never seen him look so rattled. This may’ve been the worst series I’ve ever seen from a Superscorer. That’s saying a lot because he still ended up averaging 22 points.
KD was exposed in this series. Celtics had the perfect scouting report on him and everyone executed on it. This will be the blueprint next season for how to stop him
Half of these plays were fouls.. before KD was hated so much.. He would’ve gotten these calls, and it would’ve been a different outcome. Nets should’ve had a better system in place to help, but a lot of those are fouls. Not even a fan
I hate Kobe, but if these are fouls, I don't want to hear that KD is better at scoring than Kobe, because these are no where near a foul and guys like Kobe had to score a much harder defense
@@DesignzRUs cap. I’m hopeful you’re just trolling.. because if you watched the two series, and think that they were similar in that way, you just have to be biased

That last play is so special, it just makes me shake my head. Incredibly miraculous.
I've said this before.... When Jaylen Brown is quite possibly just your 4th or 5th best defender on the team, you know the defense is legit!

This video made my day. Appreciate you Timi ☘️
what was y’all’s favorite game to watch this series. as great as the ending to game 1 was, i gotta go with game 2. celtics trail through the 3rd quarter and hit all those crazy shots in the 4th to win
I think that game 2 run gave them the assurance that they were clearly the better team. Their offense was bad in game 1 and half of game 2
Wasnt in game 2 that we started the 4th quarter like 2x18? damn, that was a nightmare, i will go with game 1
Crazy how Horford is playing like he still 25.
Thanks Tom I really enjoy your videos huge Celtics fan appreciate you staying consistent.
Great highlights thanks for letting the end play out
love the content man keep it up 👍🏾
Awesome content as always! Wish you had included Grant Williams guarding KD on a dead ball situation even after the whistle was blown.
That last 30 seconds of game 1 still amaze me after all that defense kd still could’ve hit that shot sheesh
If he misses left Claxton probably gets the rebound.
@@nah900 wow yea that too just noticed it now since you said it and that would’ve been an easy putback
@@indoraylo I wish I could claim I noticed it but someone pointed it out to me. I never really understood the phrase "felt like someone walked over my grave" but watching the sliding door moment of that bounce really got me to get that.
GOAT highlights maker
Best video ever love you tomasz
Another great video
best highlight man on CZcams.
whats insane is we haven't seen too much of RW3 for the limited time we did see him: his blocks seem like more of a last resort on defence, showing that Brooklyn didn't get very far through the C's defensive line
He honestly looked a bit lost out there
Can't thank Brad enough for getting Al back !!
The fact that Boston's defense turned Durant into a turnover machine was insane.
@Risan true words
Thank you for ending it on the right clip
At the 3 minutes of this video that was so awesome

I got it on International League Pass!
Kobe would’ve loved this. He said he couldn’t figure out how to stop KD
he’s talking ab one on one but celtics were double teaming him
@@hawks19_65 that’s the only way to stop KD. Gotta double team him and the rest of the nets are mediocre. Especially with Kyrie betraying them like he did the Celtics lol
@@BulletAgario kd is a fraud stop gobbling his nuts
@@BulletAgario Nah some of these possessions was just KD getting ripped in single coverage or help side defender covering KD passing lanes.
@@ericdupree8603 So basically you’re still saying he was being doubled?
This defense reminded me of Draymond Green's defense on Kevin Durant in the 2016 conference finals last 3 games. Those were the few of the worst games that Durant played till then. But this defense is even better than that by 5x to 10x.
and the 2014 series with tony allen and the grizzles
Tbh that was more andre iguadola instead of Draymond
Draymond wasn’t guarding him it was mostly iggy or Barnes
@@skywalker2676 wrong
Not only defense but awesome scoring with Brown and Tatum and the whole team is just a bunch of good all-around players True Grit wins games

I am looking forward to see another video on Giannis (2022 NBA Playoffs)
Inspirational
tomasz is the man
How come you forgot the best highlight of Tatum blocking Kd’s jumper in the 4th of Game 2?
GO CELTICS !!! BOSTON IN 5 GAMES, BELIEVE IN IT! HUNGER POWER ;O)
Everytime he thought he was fouled, he wasn’t. The best team defense in KD I ever seen
Love Grant Williams, you might be seeing another Terry Rozier in the making.
@Alex A offensive spark plug who can be the teams best player on a given night
Tatum and Brown have risen to elite level 2-way superstars after this series period
grant was so good in this series
Masterpiece by Tatum, Grant Williams, JB & Al Horford and for sure Masterpiece by Tomasz ☘️🧹
They actually allowed some physicality, bumping Durant before he got the ball. What happens when a star today actually faces physical defense.
We need kyrie next tomasz good job I got y’all going to the finals
No se molesten Durant es indefendible tiene tantos recursos
I really am curious about the gameplan against Giannis and 4 shooters.
I'm willing to bet Udoka is going to have something good planned for him, after seeing what his game plan did to Durant.
They are going to do the same thing to Giannis, the Celtics didn’t just guard Durant they went one step further and smothered him, they suffocated him and wore him down with double teams and just flat out physically, that is the only way to defend players of that caliber you have to be physical and force them to constantly work, wear them down.
omg Grant Williams is so amazing. KD just locked down by him and the whole celtics. KD is a turnover making machine this series
Points off turn overs to me entails whether or not a team has championship pedigree.
This is Pornhub level of defence❤
Huh???
retitle this Kevin Durant being embarrassed for 9 minutes
It's clear as day that kevin durant needs a bigger big man so he can just use screens like curry then book he easily beats the celtics
🔥 🍀
Durant can't handle the physicality
Dude looks like a stick.
yh fax he was getting doubled and turning the ball over so many times steve nash can’t coach lol
2 months later, did Steph look like this? I can’t remember 🧐
The Kemba trade for Al in an expense of a first rounder is worth it!
So pick and rolls still doesn't work in the playoffs, KD?
exposed. the only thing that comes up in my mind after this video is, "all he left is his height"
JT and JB were the Celtics best defenders and offensive players for the Celtics in this series. Those 2 are going to bring the Celtics a chip and have their jerseys retired.
stephen curry broke down c's defence like its nothing, while KD struggled all series
I hope we can officially put those narratives to sleep now
no, curry just had a much better team around him, sure kd got exposed, but curry didn't win that ring alone
@@theonlygoodonehere2259 Curry’s more dangerous on and off the ball. KD is all iso, more predictable, plus his teammate Kyrie does the same thing.
This should be considered NSFW. Too sexy.
Credit to Boston but man james harden leaving hurt so bad bro they had like 8 games together before the playoffs with that new team and kd had just came back shit wasn’t even right that season kyrie was gone ime was the coach it was set for boston to win man they should have won it all

Great defenders but somehow brown couldnt guard kd and tatum couldnt guard kyrie.
Huh
Huh
English
Do you speak it
ı think Durant ball handler not elite level like guard , they attack him while he attack and sometimes he pushed so much midrange, he need to shoot three more.
he is not that good from the 3, midrange is his forte and comfort shot
KD looked like a rookie for 3 of the 4 games. I’ve never seen him look so rattled. This may’ve been the worst series I’ve ever seen from a Superscorer. That’s saying a lot because he still ended up averaging 22 points.
Al Horford
This is what we call the harassing defense, if celtics keep on playing like these they are going to beat the bucks too
so how come they could be this physical with curry
I ask myself the same question.
illegal screens, and curry being 6'3 shooting outside, so when he drives his size difference matters, so they blow the whistle more for them
They were, but Curry isn’t facing up like Kd. Curry is pulling up from deep on this defense.
@@takeover5478 no they weren’t. They were reacting to curry tendencies than bein the agressors
@@mxchael9931 Curry is a more dangerous player to guard. Durant more predictable.
This defensive scheme would never work on lebron… for my basketball minds… uk exactly wht I mean
There almost is no defensive scheme for lebron you just have to force him to shoot and defer to his teammates
@@ry_an. make him outscore you.

Curry was fouled, no calls and still made the shots 😂
@@DesignzRUs cap. I’m hopeful you’re just trolling.. because if you watched the two series, and think that they were similar in that way, you just have to be biased
In my opinion, KD just isn't as good as he thinks and he's whiny as hell. Never in my Top 30
