Game key
photograph -The Celtics are looking for a player who can shoot from the outside and finish in the basket. There are several people on this team. The Celtics shot 47.3% from the field, 41.3% from the other side of the arc against the Bucks, 45.1% from the field, and 43.3% from the other side of the arc against the Warriors. They shot 50% from the field and 36.1% from the other side of the arc against the Grizzlies. Hopefully you’ll shoot again in this game.
defense -The Celtics focus on defensive play and are trying to figure out which Summer Celtics fits that style. Whether it’s the Summer League, the regular season, or the playoffs, defense is always the key to victory. The Summer Celtics need to strengthen their defensive end and slow down Nets scorers, especially Thomas and David Duke Jr.
Take care of the ball -The Celtics lost the heat and spun the ball more than 20 times, reducing the turnover to 17 against Bucks and 15 against the Warriors. They again had 17 against the Grizzlies. You can expect turnovers from teams that have only been together for a short time, but cleaning up these can be a great help in winning.
rebound -Rebounds allow teams to acquire additional possessions, increasing their chances of scoring. The Celtics need to crash the board, beat the net and rebound. This will increase your chances of earning a score and prevent the net from gaining fast breaks or additional possessions.
X factor
It’s the summer league -Both of these teams are cobbled together quite a bit from undrafted players, end-of-bench players, and G-League players. The Celtics have shown excellent teamwork, especially in the last three games, but each of these players is trying to impress the coaches and GMs they are watching, so you can see a lot of hero balls. Monitoring individual improvements for players is probably the best way to monitor these games. The Celtics have several players who can win spots in Maine or the roster.
