What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Porzingis doesn’t look like a guy coming into this game at least early. Sitting on the far end of the bench and was in the back of the huddle during the last timeout.
C’s are in a tough spot early, 34-21, but were in a similar spot early in G3. – 9:08 PM

Boston has obviously shown they can eat up/respond to Dallas’ pushes
But the thing to look out for
Boston isn’t deep, especially without Porzingis. No one on their bench can give them 20 minutes. So those starters hit lulls. – 9:05 PM

Porzingis is not on the court for layup lines right now. Seems most likely that he’s active in order to be part of the final moments of a potential clincher. – 8:15 PM

Porzingis looked calm walking through the locker room. Gave a slight grin and grabbed a coffee.
He’s active tonight for a potential championship clincher, something that didn’t seem possible last time he played here in Dallas: gq.com/story/kristaps… – 7:42 PM

Interesting. Like we speculated, just situational usage for Porzingis tonight. Maybe a way to make him feel like he’s part of the clincher. – 7:04 PM

Kristaps Porzingis is out here going through a decent workout before tonight’s Game 4. Getting shots up, jumping, moving around, though no running or hard cuts.
Porzingis is still questionable for tonight’s game. – 5:36 PM
