[Steve Hewitt] Joe Mazzulla after Celtics’ win over Nets tonight: “We talked over the last week or so. We definitely think we need to post more. I don’t think we’re posting enough.” Why? Mazzulla: “I was joking. We’re second in (post up) frequency and first in (post up) efficiency.”

Mazzulla owns Perkins lmaooo
Why do we post up so much? We need to shoot more threes. In fact, I never wanna see a post up again
Feel like we could still do with even more JT and KP postups. It’s just such a consistent, efficient, low risk high reward thing to base our offense around, can never have too much of it. And when we inevitably get doubled we get beautiful looks from 3
My favorite subplot of this season is Joe just clowning on the media
I’m starting to think Joe probably lurks on this subreddit with how much he follows the chatter
tbh as long as you are fist in post up efficiency you actually should post up more. I‘m happy we are second in frequency. And I don‘t mind the ranking. but to me it looked so mich better to post up early in order to get the 3 opened up, then to shot 3s early and hoping this will open the middle.
We need more post players!!! Our entire offense should be “post up the point guard and see what happens”
What are Tatum’s post moves that he’s gonna rely on with two minutes left in a close playoff game?

I laughed hysterically when I heard this.
Their [shot chart](https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/celtics-shot-chart-2024) looks pretty good to me.
