Paul Millsap doubles up with 16 points, 11 rebounds in Atlanta loss
Atlanta Hawks power forward Paul Millsap double-doubled with 16 points and 11 rebounds on Wednesday in a Game 2 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
What It Means:
The Hawks' frontcourt duo of Millsap and Al Horford has the distinction of ranking Nos. 1 and 2 in contested shots per game during the postseason. The problem in this one was perimeter defense and lackluster offense, however, and the Hawks have a ton of questions to answer as they alter their gameplan for a crucial Game 3 in Atlanta on Friday.
Millsap's 50.5 Effective Field Goal Percentage this season was slightly below his career average. An all-around monster, he put up 17.1 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.7 blocks per night this year.
