The Boston Celtics‘ hot start to the NBA’s 2023-24 season has fans wondering what is different compared to how the Celtics started their 2022-23 campaign. The team has taken a different stylistic approach, particularly in their offensive strategy, with a more varied shot diet for one.
Last season, they relied heavily on driving from the elbows and kicking out to the weak side when they weren’t hoisting up 3-pointers from elsewhere on the court, but this year they have added more variety to their scoring options. They now have a starting lineup consisting of five players who can dribble, pass, and shoot effectively. This lineup includes players of different positions and sizes, giving them an advantage in terms of versatility.
Overall, the Celtics’ collective skill set is considered one of the best in the NBA.
