Kelly Olynyk Was the Celtics' Clearcut MVP in Game 7

Isaiah Thomas is usually Boston's fourth-quarter stud, but with everything on the line, Olynyk stole the show.

On yesterday's episode of The Ringer NBA Show, The Ringer's Kevin O'Connor insisted that the Boston Celtics bench would be that deciding factor in the Celtics' decisive Game 7 against the Washington Wizards. He wasn't talking about them as a group, nor was he confining himself to one player, but rather he cited Marcus Smart, Terry Rozier and Kelly Olynyk as potential game changers.

Well played, Kevin.
