Brad Stevens has said that defense must be "part of our DNA".  We've been up and down a bit with our defense this year but, at the halfway mark:

MY NOTE:  The #2 defensive team is the Spurs at 101.7 points per game and the Golden State Warriors are third at 101.9 points per game, so 100.4 is pretty good.  What's truly scary is that the Dubs are also the #1 offensive team at 115.4 points scored per game.  That's a 13.5 ppg difference.  That's why they've only had a handful of games that have been decided by only a possession or two.

If Celts go defense in the draft they will be a better team. If they go offense in the draft they will be a better team.
