• Andrew Wiggins scored 20 points on efficient 8-of-15 shooting
• Draymond Green struggled with just 4 points on 2-of-12 shooting

• Jordan Poole managed only 9 points off the bench

Celtics Analysis:

• Al Horford led with 26 points and six 3-pointers
• Jayson Tatum shot poorly (3-of-17) but dished 13 assists
• Jaylen Brown contributed 24 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists
• Derrick White provided 21 points off the bench

Game 2 Prediction: While Boston mounted an impressive comeback in Game 1, they relied heavily on unexpected three-point shooting.

Golden State's ball movement and offensive system will likely prove more sustainable than Boston's hot shooting from Game 1.
