Can These Bold Bets Spark Game 3 Turnarounds in Celtics-Knicks and Timberwolves-Warriors Showdowns?
Brunson is averaging a series-best 23.0 points per game (PPG), and Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are settling for bad jump shots. Tatum, in particular, is getting killed by the NBA media for his sh*tting the bed in the first two games of this series. His true shooting percentage for the series, which factors in free throws, and 2-and 3-point shooting, is 39.2% (.286/.250/.778).ÂÂ
Also, Boston big Kristaps Porziņģis isn’t 100%, and New York C Mitchell Robinson has been a major problem for the Celtics. KP’s injury forces Boston to give backup C Luke Kornet more playing time, but that means Robinson gets to play. He is one of the best defensive bigs in basketball, and it’s tough for the Celtics to get past the foul line with Mitch on the floor.ÂÂ
