1. The Celtics got off to a nice enough start. Solid ball movement on the game’s opening play led to Kyrie Irving knocking down a wide open three-pointer as Boston took a 3-0 lead. It would be nearly seven minutes before Aron Baynes tipped in a missed layup to get the team’s fifth point. Brad Stevens never stresses about his offense, as long as they are moving the ball and getting good looks. This nearly seven-minute scoreless stretch featured the Celtics missing twelve straight shots, of which seven were classified as “wide open, which means no defender was within six feet of the shooter.
