Sounds like Rob's available for Game 3 if they need him (to win the game if it's close) ... otherwise expect him in Game 4

Game 3 should go to the Nets. Not because KD & KI are overdue but most likely, with Game 1 having some of, if not the best viewership numbers ever, the NBA won't want this series to end too quickly.
How can the league massage this game in favor of the Nets when they've already sent KD to the charity stripe 20 times in the last game? Can they get away with doing that again? Not likely ... which means the refs will be "loser friendly," hand-picked and the C's top players will be the targets of cheap fouls to ice them down on the bench while their replacements (White, Pritchard and Nesmith) are tasked with making up for their lost offense.
If the NBA wants 5-6 games from this series, then the Nets MUST WIN GAME 3 ... if the Celtics go up 3-0, there's no reason for the Nets to fight on and get beat up in the process. They will bow out with excuses ... unreported injuries that suddenly were there the entire series, weakness from fasting, coaches that had no game plan and were not prepared. Kyrie has already prepped the defeat complimenting Udoka, Stevens and the Celtics with "their time has come." LOL ... next he'll be telling us he was hoping the C's would win the whole thing after taking them under his wing a few years ago. What a phony!
Oh, did I mention who's scheduled to ref game 3? Ask Chris Paul what he thinks of this guy. Teams that haven't won suddenly gain the advantage and upset the favorites.

14 consecutive playoff losses for Paul with Foster blowing the whistle ... his latest to the Pelicans Tues 4/19 (just 3 days ago).

You could easily do statistical analysis of this stuff. It happened once and the nba quit making that data available
