The only contribution is to hurt yourself! Celtic pitchers won t play in the playoffs

In the previous NBA Eastern Conference semi-finals G1, the New York Knicks completed a shocking comeback and defeated the defending champion Boston Celtics who played at home 108-105. After this game, the Knicks also widened the total score of the series to 1-0, and they also regained their home advantage.

In this game, the performance of Celtics' substitute outside pitcher Sam Hauser was surprising. Hauser played 3 minutes and 58 seconds in the game, made 0 of 2 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers from outside the three-point line, did not score 1 point in the game, and no data was recorded. There was also one three-point foul, and the plus-negative value was also low to the lowest level of -7 in the game. Hauser has no touch on the offensive end, has not shown his due scoring ability and shooting ability at all, nor has he provided any help to the team on the offensive end. In addition, Hauser's effect on the defensive end is also very unsatisfactory, and his shortcomings on the defensive end have also been magnified. As a result, Hauser also made a three-point foul, and he sprained his ankle due to the foul. In fact, it was also fortunate that Hauser sprained his ankle, otherwise with his condition and his performance on both offense and defense, the Celtics would only lose even worse. But on the other hand, in this short playing time of less than 4 minutes, Hauser has had a huge negative impact on the team.

In the NBA regular season this season, Hauser played 71 games in 82 games, averaging 21.7 minutes per game, averaging 8.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 0.3 turnovers and 1.2 fouls, shooting percentage of 45.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 41.6%, and free throw shooting percentage of 100%. In the playoffs, Hauser averaged 13 minutes of playing time in the first six games, with averaging 2.7 points, 1.3 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.2 steals, and 0.2 blocks, 0.5 turnovers and 1.2 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 46.2% and a three-point shooting percentage of 36.4%.

Houser's performance during the regular season was actually quite good. Although his offensive efficiency has fluctuated and has declined to a certain extent compared to the past few seasons, he is at least still at a higher level. His three-point shooting percentage can continue to exceed 40%. He is also a very good outside pitcher. In the playoffs, although the Celtics easily advanced in the first round series, Hauser's overall performance was not ideal. His various data showed a significant decline compared to the regular season, and his performance on the defensive end was not ideal. As a result, Hauser's playing time has also decreased significantly. In this game, facing a stronger opponent, Hauser made such a disaster-level performance in the first game, which is really disappointing.
