Even with the Celtics rolling since late November, there was still an underlying theme that many fans talked about during our infrequent offensive lulls. Despite the teams ability to score with the best of them when needed, they seldom finished in the paint. With an offense generated to create plenty of open threes and a closer like Kyrie Irving who could score whenever, the inability to get buckets at the rim really didn’t seem to hurt them, but the danger with relying on the three-ball is the heavy variance. One night can be record-breaking night and the next could be could crippling bricks even with the quality of the looks being the same.
