2) No J.J. or Austin

Starters J.J. Redick and Austin Rivers went a combined 3 for 17 from the field, and only contributed 11 points in a losing effort against the Celtics. For most of Rivers’ shots, the ball just wasn’t going through the hoop. But in J.J.’s case, he had a hard time getting open throughout the entire game. For someone like him who is always in constant motion running and cutting, Boston did an amazing job at making sure J.J. didn’t get any good looks. The good news is, the two of them can’t really play any worse than they did. Hopefully the two Duke alumni be able to lift the team to a win over the Toronto Raptors.
