Washington Wizards Team News

The Wizards were without their two main players this summer and turned to younger forces as well as rebuilding the team for the next couple of years. The longtime leader of the game and the best scorer of the team, Bradley Beal, left the capital city and went to the Suns. So far, Wizards and Celtics matches have turned into outwitting and forcing Beal and Tatum to duel, who are otherwise good friends and wanted these matches to be their mutual simulcasts. In addition to Beal, Washington also left Kristaps Porzingis, who played well for the Wizards and has already proven to be a great addition to the Celtics. Gallinari and Muscala arrived from Boston on their way to Washington. Especially inspired against the Celtics will be Gallinari, who was visibly disappointed when he was traded without playing a single game for the team he supports.

Wizards continued to play very bad defense this season, as in previous years. They are playing for a large number of points, which they showed in the first two rounds. In the first game, they were defeated by the Pacers, who scored as many as 143 points, which is too much even by NBA standards. While in the last match, they defeated the Grizzlies. The leaders of the team are Kuzma and Poole, who like to speed up the game and play constantly 1 on 1. When those two start shooting and offensive production, everyone is in trouble.

Boston Celtics Team News

The Celtics experienced a large number of changes during the summer break, and the team was strengthened by Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis, who brought additional width and security to the Celtics ranks, which the “green” needed. A particularly important player for the Celtics this season should be Holiday, as he is an engine in both directions and takes responsibility when Tatum and Brown are not going offensively. Tatum looks physically much stronger and bigger this year than in previous seasons. It is very difficult to stop him when he starts to penetrate, and what is most important for the Celtics, he uses his shots much more rationally.

The Celtics recorded two victories in the first two rounds. First, they defeated the New York Knicks away, and then they defeated the Miami Heat as hosts, although they started the game very poorly. What makes coach Joe Mazzulla especially happy is the way they came to victory against the Heat, and how they came back from a score deficit. The first five are playing great, while much more is expected from the bench players. In the last match against the Heat, players from the bench scored only 8 points out of a total of 119 points. Mazzula will have to change the first five because the attacking quality of the reserves is still lacking, and he will have to give them a leader as was the case with Brogdon last season.
