How will Robert Williams continue to look?
The fact that Robert Williams made the sacrifice to return at all this season is a testament to how much this organization (and Williams himself) believe in their chances to win an NBA Championship this season.
However, in the three games that he’s been active in the postseason, he hasn’t looked much like himself. He looked a little more comfortable in Game 1 against the Milwaukee Bucks compared to how he looked against Brooklyn, but he still hasn’t been able to have the same impact as he did for the Celtics during the regular season.
The Celtics can beat the Bucks even if that remains to be the case in this series, but Boston is able to take their defense to another level when Rob is playing at an elite level. So far, that hasn’t been the case. It’s something to keep an eye on.
