Among all players in the league, Al Horford lands in the 78th percentile (high is bad, in this case) for bricked three-point shots while playing away from home, tallying an enormous 3.1 per game this year.The Celtics have played at the 2nd-slowest pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 20 games.The Heat have played at the 3rd-most lethargic tempo in the league in their home city this year, which should lead to fewer possessions for the Boston Celtics.Al Horford will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home stadium tends to decrease stat production across the board.
