The Boston Celtics head man lived up to that billing this past season as time and time again he drew up new and innovative sets that put his team in the best position to win. Since January 22, the Celtics played in a league high 25 \u201cclutch\u201d games considered. A clutch game is when you are either ahead or trailing by 5 points or less with 5 minutes to play. The Celtics went 15-10 down the stretch in those games with a .600 winning percentage.<\/p>\n<p>The Brad Stevens Boston Celtics Late Game Offense improved in clutch situations by almost 7 points-per-hundred possessions (108.9 up from 101.7). They also ranked 8th in the NBA in TO % in the clutch averaging just over 10 turnovers per-hundred possessions. This was a huge improvement from the previous season when the Celtics aver over 16 turnovers per-hundred possessions. That ranked 28th out of 30th in the league.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Brad Stevens also revved up the offense in his second year at the helm, installing a \u201cPace and Space\u201d offense. They got the Pace part down; the Celtics were 5th in the NBA averaging 98.40 possessions over 48 minutes according to NBA.com. The Celtics also do space the floor well and attempt almost 25 3-pointers per game. However, they make them at the 4th worst rate in the NBA; 32.7% from 3 per NBA.com. The floor spacing leads to ball movement and despite playing 22 different players this season the Celtics assisted on an impressive 62.9% of their field goals ranking them 4th in the entire NBA.<\/p>\n<p>The following Brad Stevens Boston Celtics Late Game Offense playbook and YouTube are offensive sets that the Celtics ran during those \u201cclutch\u201d situations that either won the Celtics a game, or attempted to chip into a late lead.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/n8n7sp7iI7M\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21132 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot.jpg\" alt=\"Coach John Zall on Boston Celtics Late Game Offense\" width=\"513\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot.jpg 513w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-450x450.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-144x144.jpg 144w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-188x188.jpg 188w, https:\/\/www.mensbasketballhoopscoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/John-Zall-head-shot-294x294.jpg 294w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/John_Zall\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Follow Coach John Zall on Twitter!!!<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Coach John Zall just completed his first season as an Assistant Coach at Division II Franklin Pierce University in Rindge, NH.
