Marcus Smart: 'The majority of the offense is random'
The Celtics’ offense now relies heavily on what Mazzulla calls “randomness.” As Smart described the system, the team has “a couple plays” with all sorts of reads off those actions. Everything only works if the players operate on the same page. “Literally,” Smart said, “the majority of the offense is random.”

Imagine walking into practice and seeing Marcus Smart and Joe Mazzulla wrestling on the court.
Marcus: “I think everybody wishes at times they could fight their coach … Joe, he’s crazy, man. He’d rather die than tap out.”
