2 big reasons: 1. When you're that close to the baseline you're behind the backboard 2. When you're that close to the baseline you completely eliminate the ability to move that direction, making you easier to guard since your defender knows you can't get any closer to the baseline, so one defender can literally trap you in the corner
See, you say this, but guess what? All the Celtics players on the floor also have brains. So why didn't they see everything coming? It's because they are out there playing and running and reacting, not sitting at home watching a video explaining basketball tactics. It's one thing to make the right read, and another to do it in real time with fans watching and shouting.
Ive always wondered why corner shooters don't move closer to the baseline for more spacing, it just seems like a mental thing
might be because they'll be looking behind the backboard if they go further

This is why the lakers new 5 out alignment is superior to their old scheme despite lakers fans begging for the old 4 out 1 in back
