Hit on the Porzingis latest with @Herring_NBA today.
Whether he’s starting or coming off the bench, I continue to believe the #Celtics need him available to win a championship this year.
He’s probable tomorrow. pic.x.com/AczoM5041u – 9:03 PM

Kristaps Porzingis was feeling a little better with the illness today. He’s day-to-day. Hauser is day-to-day with the ankle. – 12:59 PM

#Celtics badly needed the relief Kornet/Porzingis could’ve provided behind Knicks’ pressure on the ball-handlers. Kornet lost to fouls. Porzingis to illness. 5 out just ended up being flatter. pic.x.com/W06hD0Ctpp – 3:11 AM

The wide open 3 stat makes me feel better about the shot selection overall but not the ones late in the 4th. Overall, rebounding, ball control and other small details along with handling physicality have to be much better. KP/Hauser stuff is worrisome. – 11:04 PM

I know it’s a seven-game series, but as poorly as Boston has shot from deep, along with Porzingis being out most of the way, this feels like a game the Knicks have to pull out. – 9:16 PM

The Celtics are shooting 26% from 3 and they’ve gotten nothing from Porzingis and they’re up 20 on the Knicks – 8:42 PM

It looks like Porzingis is in the locker room. Didn’t see him go off but he was talking to the training staff earlier this half. pic.x.com/oEBtRaRbrP – 8:12 PM

Good P&R action by Holiday and KP there. #Celtics have to get Porzingis going off movement like they did in G4 last series. – 7:48 PM
