I was expecting the Celtics to make a comeback. Losing both home games was just ridiculous. Game 3 was a big opportunity for the Knicks, but the Celtics dominated from start to finish and didn't let them take the series to 3-0. It's not like they'll always shoot poorly from three. When they shoot well, they win. I still see the Celtics as the favorites to advance in this round.
In that case, they really need to win Game 2 and I’m pretty sure it’s going to be a close one.
I’m basing this on the Nuggets vs. OKC series, where OKC blew out the Nuggets in Game 2, but then lost to them in Game 3.
So for the Celtics, it’s all about consistency. If they build a big lead, they have to hold onto it just like they did in Game 3.
The Timberwolves lost a home game so they need to make up for that. I'm expecting a win from them today as well. Edwards didn't suffer a serious injury. While Curry is out, the Timberwolves should finish this series as soon as possible.
I guess I’m betting against you on this one.
Yeah, Edwards is doing great, but the Warriors are definitely going to make adjustments after that Game 2 loss. And this is their first home game of the serie, they’ll be fired up and ready to deliver in front of the home crowd.
