Is it worth watching?

The ESPN data for this game contradicts the official result, so it cannot be rated

It measures how much the win probability moved during the game —without looking at who won or at the score— and compares it with the 10,950 NBA games with a curve since 2017. “Highly recommended” is the most intense 20%, “recommended” runs from 50% to 80%, and “skippable” is the rest.

The last point of this curve falls on BOS's side, but CHA won 121-118. It is an ESPN error at the close of the game: the curve is shown as it is and no conclusion is drawn from it.
