A huge question going into Mavericks vs Celtics Game 2 will be whether or not Kristaps Porzingis can play as well as he did in the opening game of the series. Porzingis came off the bench in his return from injury, scoring 20 points on 8/13 shooting, while blocking three shots on the defensive end of the floor. If we get that version of Porzingis again in Game 2, Boston could be heading to Dallas with a 2-0 series lead.
