Celtics need lessons from Tommy Heinsohn and Paul Pierce - "Get into the paint"

Guess which NBA team has the lowest percentage of field goals attempted in the paint. It is the Celtics, and they rank dead last at 30th (35.3%) in that category. How about percentage of field goal attempts on 3-pointers. Boston ranks third with 41.1% of their field goal attempted coming from beyond the arc. That needs to change.

The Celtics have so many dudes who are good at this that it's crazy it's even an issue https://t.co/nIV3LP2KH8

Brad Stevens has stressed this point to his troops for quite a while now.
