Same thing is happening in Boston with their spare parts in Amir Johnson and Kelly Olynyk. Boston is basically Thomas, Bradley, Horford and Crowder for defense and the rest of their rotation is going to get exploited. Robin Lopez eatting them alive.

The only reason why Boston finished where they did was because of their consistently high effort level. The playoffs are a great equalizer in that regard. Everyone is now trying hard. That makes a team like the Celtics that isn't all that talented (outside of the few you mentioned) quite vulnerable.
