Deep Dive

Chapters
Bill Simmons discusses the concept of team identity in the NBA Finals, citing examples of championship teams whose success wasn't solely reliant on a single star player. He argues that the Celtics' identity lies in the combined strength of Tatum and Brown, along with their exceptional depth, which ultimately led them to victory.
  • Celtics' identity is defined by "The Jays" (Tatum and Brown) and their high-end depth.
  • Team identity, not just individual star power, is crucial for winning championships.
  • Simmons cites examples like the '79 Sonics, '89 Pistons, '04 Pistons, and '14 Spurs to illustrate the importance of team identity.
