What the Celtics need from Tristan Thompson against the Nets

In what was probably a closer game than most people expected, the Celtics fell short in game one against the Nets on Saturday night. While it could have been a golden opportunity for the Celtics to get a jump on the series and get some serious confidence going forward, it still wasn’t a total loss. The defense looked better than it had for most of the season, and the weakest point seemed to be the offense.

I know many Celtics fans have lost their confidence in Kemba, but I for one don’t expect him to play as badly as he did on Saturday for the rest of the series.
