They didn't; it was an error by the broadcast

Oh, no, the Knicks didn't have a timeout left, apparently!

I am grateful to the Hawks for making it a series lol

The Hawks just almost gave the game away, but they are saved by the Knicks opting not to call a timeout

Oh no, McCollum

May we never know whether neutering him would actually work 😂

Much of the Knicks' strength rests on Mitchell Robinson. Neutralizing his impact is crucial

Yes, it’ll be a good counter for them. VJ has a few reps creating while being defended by Sam, who isn’t as good navigating screens compared to D-White. VJ also got created against Pritchard several times

Apparently, Tyrese Maxey is uncomfortable shooting 3s off the dribble because of his pinky.

Curious to see if Nick Nurse will create more sets that will get Maxey off-the-catch 3s or 3s after dribble hand-offs

Thrilled to see Kornet getting lots of praise for his role in the Spurs' win against the Blazers

It definitely is. Wouldn't wanna stretch a series against Orlando. Celtics learned the hard way last year

Duren being quiet offensively definitely hurt them, too. But I do expect Detroit to come out with more fire next game

I'm very curious to see how Orlando's physicality holds up. Seems like their size is the one advantage they can consistently have over the Pistons

Did not expect to wake up and see the Detroit Pistons lose to the Orlando Magic today lol

The Celtics handle business surgically. Onto the next one.

BOS 1-0 PHI ☘

Hugo block into a Baylor 3!! Cherries on top

Looks like the sequence in the 3Q where JB and Vuc hit back-to-back 3s was the Celtics' dagger this game.

Sixers never gained momentum again after that

Love seeing JB get a whole quarter of rest

Jordan Walsh enters for JT, and that should be it for the Jays this game

Mentally, the Sixers are already in Game 2

Celtics break the 100-point mark after the Sixers leave Sam open yet again

Agreed! Very useful to have in his toolbox, too

He hasn't scored much, but D-White has been masterful in the margins in this game

Right-corner movement 3s have been money for JB all season

Love that board, Walshy!!

JB backdoor cut goodness

Much of the Celtics' playoff success rests on Vuc finding his rhythm and shining in his role. Great to see his 3 go down

One way that the Sixers have kept the game close enough is through their offensive rebounding.

No doubt shaped by the Celtics not having Queta on the floor

Yikes, Queta

Crucial 3Q coming up. The Sixers' shooting will find its level, so the Celtics need to maintain defensive discipline
