9.01.2025 Lou Williams: Not many teams can beat the Celtics when they shoot at that percentage

Lou Williams believes Boston has adopted the Warriors` style of play and it`s working. Everyone makes fun of the Warriors and how they made their championship run from behind the 3-point arc. But they had two of the best shooters in NBA history in Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry.
The Celtics take advantage of the Warriors` style of play because they have a lot of guys who can shoot and they have two top-notch shooters who have expanded their range beyond the three-point arc. Not many teams can beat them when they shoot at that percentage.
When it comes to the Celtics, we always say that this is their Achilles heel. They take too many jump shots. When a team likes to play behind the 3-point arc and mid-range, attack at a high percentage and shoot 22 3-pointers in one game, that team is incredibly difficult to beat, no matter who you are, ” said the former NBA player.
