Has committed a fatal foul? The Celtics were probably beaten by Brunson long ago without the backcourt gate?

In the previous NBA Eastern Conference semi-finals G2, the New York Knicks once again completed a shocking comeback, defeating the Boston Celtics who played at home again 91-90. After this game, the Knicks also unexpectedly won two consecutive away games, and led the defending champion Boston Celtics with a total score of 2-0, gaining an absolute advantage in this round of series.

In this game, although the Celtics lost the game and although Jrue Holiday made a foul at the last moment, Jalen Brunson completed the final kill, his overall performance was actually quite good. Holiday played 34 minutes and 04 seconds in the whole game, made 4 of 6 shots, 0 of 2 from outside the three-point line, and 2 of 3 free throws, and scored 10 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal. He also had 4 turnovers and 3 fouls, with a plus-negative value of -1.

Holiday got some points on the offensive end when he didn't take many shots, providing a lot of support to the team. Holiday's performance on the defensive end is even more remarkable. Under his limitations, Brunson felt bad throughout the game, and only scored 17 points in 19 shots, which can be said to be a mess in terms of efficiency. Holiday had to defend his opponent's backcourt core throughout the game. In this case, he basically completed his own task, which led to Brunson not exerting his strength at all. As for the team's defeat, it seems to be related to his foul on the surface, but the problem is that if the double-player 13 of 42 can hit a few more goals, the Celtics have already won. As for the game like this?

In the NBA regular season this season, Holiday made a total of 62 appearances in 82 games, averaging 30.6 minutes per game, averaging 11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. His shooting percentage was 44.3%, three-point shooting percentage was 35.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 90.9%. In the playoffs, Holiday made a total of 4 appearances in the first seven games, averaging 35.6 minutes per game, with an average of 11.5 points, 4 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.3 blocks, and 2.5 turnovers and 3 fouls. His shooting percentage was 51.4%, three-point shooting percentage was 31.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 83.3%.

Holiday's performance during the playoffs was actually quite good. He also had good offensive efficiency on the offensive end. He was able to provide a lot of help and support to the team in terms of passing and organization. He even had to limit the core characters of his opponents on the defensive end. Holiday's tactical status on the court is actually not high, but in this case he can still perform both offense and defense and play the role he should play. This is already a very commendable thing. After all, Holiday is not the core figure of the team. He can hold the team's lower limit, but the one who really raises the team's upper limit must be the Double Tanhua. With the performance of the two games of Double Tanhua, it is really difficult for the Celtics to win.
