Ever since the Celtics traded for Porzingis last summer, the star center carved out his niche on the team as a highly-reliable two-way player. His prowess lies in his ability to both protect the paint and capitalize on mismatches is what helped boost Boston to 64-18 in the regular season.
Coach Joe Mazzulla offered an explanation for Porzingis's performance Wednesday, crediting Miami with being physical and not allowing themselves to be victimized by the big man's switching. 'We gotta get better physically at holding seals, make better passes, have better spacing.'
Moving into Saturday's Game 3 matchup, Porzingis knows what he needs to be more focused on in order to boost his team to the next round of the playoffs. 'I'll make sure I'm better offensively, 100 percent.'
