Kyrie Irving has tallied 2.7 personal fouls per game this year, making him one of the most foul-prone players in the NBA (87th percentile).The Brooklyn Nets check in as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).The Celtics have played at the 5th-slowest pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games, which should lead to decreased possessions for the Nets.Kyrie Irving will not enjoy the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home court generally decreases stat production across the board.
