First, a little trip down movie memory lane after the Celtics blew out the Bulls on Saturday night 133-77, treating Chicago like Principal Vernon does Bender in this scene:
Forgive the Breakfast Club reference, but that’s exactly what the Celtics gave the Bulls in director John Hughes’ favorite locales: a common basketball set called HORNS.
Conceptually, it’s pretty simple: a point guard starts with the ball at the top of the three-point line with the two bigs at opposite sides of the free throw line. Almost every team runs some version it and for the Celtics, it’s a great set for their versatile roster.
