Message: [QUOTE="Matrim55, post: 5026729, member: 3376"] The Celtics are on track to have the greatest defensive postseason of all-time: [LIST] [*]The Mavs have yet to score 100 points in this finals series, after averaging 118 during the regular season. [*]They have held teams to 15 points less than their regular season average in 11 of their 17 games so far. [*]They have held teams to, on average, 15 points below their regular season scoring average throughout the playoffs so far. [/LIST] [B]Before this year, the most a team has held their opponents below their scoring averages in a playoffs run was 12.4 points[/B] — by Russell’s Celtics in 1964. Unless this team manages to give up 150 in the next couple games, they are poised to shatter that record. [/QUOTE]
