Al Horford had the most FGA against him in isolation of any player in the playoffs. He locked down opponents to 16/55 29.0 FG% (!!!) on those possessions and only fouled 6% of the time…

He was great. Hope we keep his minutes low and he can be a contributor for us next postseason too
Does it count as isolation if its off a screen and Al drops back? Kinda want to know what the numbers are with that.
Al Horford was phenomenal defensively in the playoffs. If only his shooting wasn’t so horrible in the playoffs then we could have won it all.
Big Al has always been an anchor for the Celtics defense (in a the best way)
It just isn’t the same without him. He’s the #1 player I want to see finally win a Ring
Why do I feel like stats don’t tell the whole story. Lol. Maybe it was his subpar offense and horrendous shooting that clouded his defense. That wasn’t the Al we came to love offensively he was abysmal in the playoffs.
