Team Connections
Al Jefferson was originally drafted by the Celtics with the 15th overall pick in the 2004 NBA Draft and played for the Celtics from 2004-07
Jason Collins was teammates with Al Jefferson and Randy Foye in Minnesota during the 2008-09 season
Collins and Marvin Williams were teammates in Atlanta from 2009-12
Kevin Garnett and Randy Foye were teammates in Minnesota during the 2006-07 season
Courtney Lee and Jeremy Evans both attended Western Kentucky
Lee and DeMarre Carroll were teammates in Houston during the 2010-11 season
Chris Wilcox and Earl Watson were teammates in Seattle and Oklahoma City from 2005-09
Darko Milicic and Al Jefferson were teammates in Minnesota during the 2009-10 season.

Game Notes
The Celtics finish their 5 game road trip on a back to back against a tough Jazz team.  The Celtics have lost all 6 games that are the second of back to backs on the road this season.   They have also won only 1 road game against the Western Conference this season, and that was the Suns.   

The Jazz are a very good home team with a 21-6 record.  The Celtics haven't been a good road team this season with just a 9-18 record away from the Garden.  Both teams are 6-4 in their last 10 games and both are coming off a loss.  The Celtics beat the Jazz at the Garden 98-93 back in November. 

The Celtics are trying to incorporate two new players.  Both played great against the Suns but faltered somewhat against the Blazers.  The Celtics may also have a third new player if DJ White's paperwork comes through from China.  The Celtics need to get contributions from them, especially playing in back to back games. 

This will be a tough game to win, coming at the tail end of their west coast road trip, and the second of back to back games.   They need to bring their lock down defense and be more aggressive in going to the basket.  The Jazz always play physical basketball and so the Celtics have to be ready to punch back and be aggressive. 

Key Matchups
(http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com/nba/boston/KGBos.jpg)  vs  (http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com/nba/utah/AJeffersonU.jpg)
Kevin Garnett vs Al Jefferson
KG will be matched up against former Celtic Big Al Jefferson, who was a key member of the trade that brought KG to Boston.   Big Al has been playing well and is a handful around the basket KG will need to go inside to defend Al.  Al's defense has always been his weak link and so KG should have a good game offensively.

(http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com/nba/boston/BassBos.jpg)  vs  (http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com/nba/utah/MillsapUt.jpg)
Brandon Bass vs Paul Milsap
Millsap is a tough matchup and has been playing well.  Bass will need to up his defense to keep Millsap's scoring down and he will also need to box out as Millsap is a danger around the hoop and a good rebounder. 

Keys to the Game
Defense -  The Celtics will need to make defense a priority in every game but especially against the Jazz as they have some very good scorers and the Celtics will have trouble winning a shoot out.    They have to get stops if they want to win the game. 

Rebound The Celtics need to be aggressive in crashing the boards as a team.  Utah is a big team and they are also a good rebounding team.  The Celtics must be aggressive on the boards as a team if they want to win this game. 

Bench The Jazz have a very strong bench and the Celtics reserves will need to play well in this game in order for the game not to get out of control while the starters rest.  The new players have to continue to fit in and play well. 

Be Aggressive  Sometimes the Celtics get passive and when they do, they always struggle and always seem to pick up a lot more fouls.  The Celtics must be aggressive and go strong to the basket, go after loose balls and crash the boards. 


X-Factors

Back to Back on the Road
The Celtics are playing in yet another back to back set on the road.  It is the final game on the road trip and fatigue could be setting in.  It will take a monumental effort from each player to win this game.

Terrence and Crawford have to play well off of the bench

Gonna be tough.  We can't come out too fast or well burn out.   Pacing, good shots and better lowpost help should secure a win

Utah's size in the paint is going to be an issue. Especially in their 2nd unit. Those two guys (Kanter, Favors) are big and physical. They push opposing 2nd units around like rag dolls in the paint.

Post by: henr1k on February 25, 2013, 09:32:28 AM
This looks like a schedule loss to me. I hope I am wrong but to win in SL on the second night of back to back C's will have to play their best game this year - especially with our thin front court.

Good thing is that if we lose, at least Fakers will be a game further from the playoffs. :)

I think we're all expecting a loss, so...
Celtics win by 15+, Green scores 23+ points.
Jazz are a very tough team at home though.
Please sit KG again.

Not like these 4 bigs: AlJeff/ Milsap/Kanter/Favors.

Our guards and wings are where we have the edge.

If they don't shoot well tonight, we don't have a prayer!

I really like the Avery Bradley pick and curls, but would like him to take them a bit closer. He did that very well against Denver I think it was. It's a huge weapon for him.

What's it going to take for Doc to play Green over Bass?  Or just hardly play Bass at all?  If Green's explosion in Phoenix and Bass' terrible two-way play isn't going to cause a change, I have no idea.

Sorry, but playing Green against Milsap is not really a recipe for success. Wilcox is the guy Doc needs to start with KG.

You can tell we are a team that does not double much. If Big Al had any court vision, he'd destroy these telegraphed doubles.

Green has a much better chance of taking it right at Millsap than either Wilcox and Bass and defensively, yeah, I'd take Green over both those guys as well.  Millsaps' a good post player but he also faces up in post situations a lot, which Green should be better capable of defending.

Whatever the case, Bass should not be playing even if a player of Green's caliber wasn't on the bench.

I love the Jazz post play. Either box.

Yea, I read a piece on it once. They have the best big-man rotation in the league imo.

Milwaukee can claim second place.

Memphis too.

Would be better if they kept Speights :( But Davis is great too.

The bench looks way better tonight. Crawford looks like he doesn't want to be known as the chucker he was in Washington, but he has got to know not to pass the ball to Bass with an expiring clock.

It looks like Terrence Williams is out of the rotation after his terribly selfish performance against Portland.  He really has no one to blame but himself.  I don't understand why he chooses to be a gunner rather than use his passing skills to stay in the league.

Crawford seem to avoid contact to the point that it makes his shots a lot more difficult. He often gets a step on the defender but then fades to avoid contact, he could get to the line a lot more if he absorbed the contact.

Maybe I'm not as smart as you guys, but I kinda think the C's are losing because Utah has a ton of capable post guys and we have nobody to guard them outside of KG. C's have 48 points, right about where they should be--they are just getting murdered on the boards, have to double Al/Milsap, and giving up 3's on their doubles. Because they have no bigs. I don't know what Doc is supposed to do about that.

And if you say "Fab Melo" ...no.

Post by: timobusa on February 25, 2013, 10:20:51 PM
Maybe I'm not as smart as you guys, but I kinda think the C's are losing because Utah has a ton of capable post guys and we have nobody to guard them outside of KG. C's have 48 points, right about where they should be--they are just getting murdered on the boards, have to double Al/Milsap, and giving up 3's on their doubles. Because they have no bigs. I don't know what Doc is supposed to do about that.

And if you say "Fab Melo" ...no.

ADJUSTMENTS is the key.

We can match up size wise. We got Wilcox and KG. Why not let them guard the post. And we have Green and Pierce that both can play the 2 3 and 4 spot. Why not utilize them in a way that would match up defensively and would help us offensively too.

But Doc will NEVER make any adjustments.
He sticks to his old ways.

Avery has played 24 minutes, it's fine. I rather he not play many minutes, and keep up his energy and defensive pressure.

What Doc can't do is let some of his players on the floor through long stretches when they're cold. Which was the case with Terry in the 1st half, and kept Bradley on the bench for too long.

One thing I really liked about this game was Lee being used as a ballhandler off a Pierce screen.  I can't recall Lee using Pierce as a screener and I don't know why it took this long.  Pound for pound, Pierce is as good as Dwight Howard in setting a screen on a smaller player and Lee is as good as anybody on the team at hitting jumpers after coming off a screen.
