Celtics have shut down Pacers in two quarters over two playoff games

The Celtics lead the series 2-to-0 against the Pacers in Round One of the Eastern Conference playoffs, and shutting down Indiana's offense in the 3rd quarter of Game One and the final quarter of Game Two played a huge role. Despite Terry Rozier's lackluster offensive games, he has been a workhorse on defense, particularly in Game Two.

A look at the #Pacers shotchart in the 4Q. They were 0-for-9 on 2-point shots and seven of those were basically at the rim.
