Related Topics: Boston Celtics, Key (basketball)

Because of their poor shooting the Boston Celtics‘ offensive success hinges on a high quantity of shots without sacrificing the quality of the opportunities. The Celtics need to get the most out of each possession and they need as many possessions as possible. They have the difficult task of finding how to keep their turnovers down while playing at an incredibly high pace.

The Celtics are behind only the Warriors and the Kings when it comes to pace. They are constantly pushing the ball in transition and play in an offensive system that is in no way impacted by the amount of time on the shot clock.
