Five advantages for the Hawks, and five countermeasures by the Celtics. Most important for the C's, make this a defensive game. The Hawks have scored 81, 77 and 85 points in the losses, and 102 and 97 in their wins. It’s no mystery that the Celtics focus must be on controlling the tempo and playing the team defense that gave them the best record in the NBA. [link]

You have to (metaphorically) push them down and step on their neck. You can't fall back into prevent defense.

They are famous for turning it on and off, which ultimately bit them in the butt last year when it took too long to turn it back on. That's the primary fear here. Will the Celtics be able to keep it turned on all postseason?
