Derrick White says the Al Horford lineups are “different, but still effective” without Kristaps Porzingis. Said it doesn’t change his game much. – 10:56 PM

Jaylen Brown was asked if he and Jayson Tatum need to do more without Kristaps Porzingis.
“No,” Brown said. “I think we just have to continue to play our game like we’ve been doing our whole career and continuing to show our growth and trusting our teammates. I think if we’re… – 10:50 PM

Major theme from Jaylen Brown tonight. He and the #Celtics “can play a lot better.” Like Mazzulla, he sees pace as the focus without Porzingis. pic.twitter.com/kS6XzhzmzS – 10:48 PM

#Celtics 58.5% FG 42.9% 3PT 25 FTA. Not a bad start to life without Porzingis. They’ve strung together some good defensive stretches in this one too. – 9:16 PM

Tatum is back out to start the second quarter after playing the entire first. His regular rotation was shifted with Porzingis out, but you rarely see this from Mazzulla regardless. – 8:08 PM

Three quick entry finishes exactly what Boston was looking for from a pace perspective to start this one. Brown, White got them right into their sets. Have to keep leaning on them to do that. The longer passing sequences are super encouraging too. This is how they survive no KP. – 7:47 PM

Heat down 15-11 in first stint

Heat aren’t getting up the amount of threes they want, but getting great shots
No Porzingis changes things on that end

Dice @InStreetClothes que el desgarre de sóleo (pantorrilla/gemelo) en la NBA requiere un promedio de 17 días de recuperación.
Si aplicamos ese promedio, Kristaps Porzingis se perdería la segunda vuelta de playoffs.
Giannis lleva tres semanas fuera. Veremos en el caso de KP. pic.twitter.com/wafITerHWO – 6:28 PM

#Celtics without Porzingis in this series: 87 min. +22.9 121 OR 98 DR.
Only 9 min. so far for Kornet, but BOS went -47 during them. Seeing how Horford rises to major minutes and the bench fares while pulling Kornet, Tillman, maybe even Brissett/Queta into action worth watching – 1:52 PM

The Conference Finals will start around May 20, Boston can afford to play this conservative.

More on this storyline
Brian Robb: Joe Mazzulla on latest on Kristaps Porzingis timeline: “Give it a week, see where he’s at.” -via Twitter @BrianTRobb / May 1, 2024
Bobby Manning: Joe Mazzulla said on 98.5 that Kristaps Porzingis will be evaluated in one week. That knocks him out of the rest of this series, however long it goes, and at least the beginning of the next one. Game 1 of R2 will either start on Sunday or Tuesday. -via Twitter @RealBobManning / May 1, 2024
