In episode two of the Celtics Chronicle podcast, I’m joined by
to discuss the lessons we learned from game four, Derrick White’s career night, Kristaps Porzingis’ injury, and what to expect on Wednesday in game five.We also touch on the difficult path in the Western Conference and how that could give the Celtics an advantage if they make it to the NBA Finals — but will that advantage be nullified if they find themselves in some six or seven game battles due to Kristaps Porzingis’ injury?
Does Philly, Milwaukee, and Miami all being on the brink of elimination make things easier for the Celtics? Or are we undervaluing some of the younger and upcoming teams in the East?
Most importantly, though, how can the Celtics replicate the impact of Porzingis? And how do they navigate their backup big-man spot while he’s recovering from injury? All this and more on today’s episode!
P.S. if you prefer to watch this discussion rather than just listen, then check out the video podcast on YouTube (embedded below)
Can the Celtics close out the series?
