The Celtics lost farewell to the season, and the dynasty collapsed instantly!

The Celtics were eventually eliminated by the Knicks when they lost Tatum, such an important offensive and defensive strong point! In the last game, facing the Knicks, he was able to win a victory with three-pointers and Derek White's explosion at home. Today, after the Knicks improved their offense and defense levels, Xiaobai could not continue to perform efficiently. Jaylen Brown could not bear the strength and responsibility of the boss. It was reasonable for the team to lose the game in the end!

I have to say that the overall decline of the Celtics is still very large compared to last year's championship season. Even if Tatum is not injured, there is almost no hope for them to defend the title! On the offensive end, the team started last season with the five tigers and Porzingis all had strong singles and three-pointers, but this year, Horford was already old and could only shoot a few three-pointers, and he could not sit in the wrong position; after Porzingis had 15 pick-and-rolls before, he could be said to be accurate in facing the small defenders. This year, as long as he was given a confrontation, anyone could defend him; Holiday's three-pointer stability has always been a major weakness in his career. Last season was the peak season of three-point shooting, and this year it has dropped sharply, and the offensive threat has also been much smaller!

Before, we mentioned in many forward-looking analysis that because the Celtics are a team that cannot take on the responsibility of sophomore players, unless the role players are armed to the teeth, that is, there is no blind spot in the defense, and the offense does not rely too much on star players to create space, they can create opportunities by themselves, so that the team has hope. However, the offensive role players have declined too much this year, which requires Tatum and Brown to fully demonstrate their ability to lead the team. However, you will find that Tatum keeps shooting three-pointers, and if you make sure you make sure you get 40+ to complete the redemption, you are not sure and will be taken away!

In addition, the team has also made obvious regression on the defensive end. This year, Horford has also declined sharply in footsteps, confrontations, and rebound protection. Towns is actually not a tough guy, but he has grabbed Horford's match and hits frequently. This is not a misalignment, or a normal one-on-one match. Even Horford can't defend Towns, so it will be almost difficult for the whole team to limit Towns' defense! In addition, due to his poor offensive condition, Porzingis obviously has the ability to drive his own defense and take rebounds and protect the frame with his bamboo pole body without offense. If there is a big problem with his inside defense, the team's defense will naturally not be dominant.

The sophomore level is not enough, there is no absolute superstar with stable performance, and there are several character players who have severely declined on both offense and defense. So how do you compare with strong teams such as the Knicks? Brunson is undoubtedly the one who beats the heroes on the offensive end in this series, because if you can't make a big head, you can use your body to kill the box at close range or make a foul; if Towns doesn't make a shot outside, he can also crush Horford into the penalty area and play success rate, while the Celtics are numb, just shoot three points, shoot smoothly, and shoot smoothly, and you can't explain it. You don't have the qualities of a mature strong team at all!

I have to say that the changes in the NBA are really too fast. I thought the Celtics could achieve a dynasty when I won the championship last year, but the decline in players of important roles is enough to make a dynasty a dream bubble!
