3 reasons why the Boston Celtics lost pivotal Game 6 to the Warriors

Reason Boston Celtics lost Game 6 No. 3) Turnovers, turnovers, and… turnovers

Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum carry too much of the burden of being point forwards. They should not be bringing the ball up and it is evident at the rate of how much they gave away possessions.

The Boston Celtics actually managed to increase their number of turnovers in Game 6 by hitting the 22 mark as some sort of a weird flex.

Marcus Smart struggled to complete the right reads with giveaways off of sloppy passes.

Derrick White played sped up at times leading to lost possessions.

Robert Williams has a terrible habit of bringing the ball down on the catch when he’s grounded near the basket, leading to smaller players stripping the ball away and another wasted trip offensively.

He needs to catch the ball and get into his shooting motion.

The C’s need to target a low mistake point guard to take over a majority of the ball-handling duties. Smart may function better sliding over to the off-guard with less responsibility for getting the team into their action offensively.

This was a great season and now it is time to dig in as a front office and fill in the missing holes in this championship puzzle. This is only the second time in franchise history that a visiting team has hoisted the Larry O’Brien trophy in the TD/ Boston Garden.

Hopefully, this Finals experience and coming up short adds fuel to this young team’s fire. Fuel to ignite the engine to get back to the mountaintop.
