The West Virginia product is moving on to the second round of the NBA Playoffs.
A year ago, the Boston Celtics appeared to be well on their way to the NBA Finals. With the No. 1 seed, Milwaukee, going down in the opening round of the playoffs, everyone started penciling Boston in as the Eastern Conference champion.
This year, the two met in the opening round and after being tied at one a piece through the first two games, Boston quit playing around and put the hammer down, winning by an average of 22.6 points over the final three games. “We don’t really worry about what happened last year. At the end of the day, I really liked how we approached the series, regardless of who we were playing. Had an intentionality to it, an attention to detail, had a consistent physicality. That’s the most important thing, having that regardless of who you’re playing against.”
