#2 Terry Rozier continues to sparkle

Philadelphia 76ers v Boston Celtics - Game One
Rozier had several successful drives

Eric Bledsoe might still be having nightmares of the cruel ankle-breaker Rozier put on him in Game 1 of Round 1, but Scary Terry is a man focused on the moment. He came out with a gameplan tailored to suit his strengths, and he taught Ben Simmons a thing or two on the night with some amazing deceptions en route to putting up a 29 point, 8 rebound, 6 assists, 2 steals, a performance that drives his free agent stock up even further.

The 3rd year point guard out of Louisville stamped his authority on the game in several ways, but it was his lights-out shooting that stood out the most on the night. Terry went to full-on Steph mode, converting a whopping 7 out of 9 three-pointers and taking just 18 shots to reach 29 points.

If Rozier continues in the same vein in this series, the Sixers will have a real fight on their hands trying to contain this two-way stud.
