Ilyasova comments on ESPN about the importance of the atmosphere in the playoffs and that he’s expecting a more rowdy crowd in Boston.
“When we were in Miami, the gym was half-empty,” Ilyasova said after the team’s practice. “But when you go to Boston, you will feel it. Even in the regular season, you know when you play that team, the arena is full, and they’re really committed fans.”
“It’s always tough to play at their place,” he added. “It’s always crowded, and we have to come up with a lot of energy and edge to win the game.”
