Which baldy?

Horford or White?


Whites, can not stand that guy


Honestly, White might be my fav player on that team. 100% a Thibs kind of guy. Basically their Josh Hart.

Good test but but not the final test. Especially without OG who we will desperately need if we have any chance of beating this team in a seven game series.

I just want a competitive game and not a blood bath like the season opener. A win would be a good morale boost. A close loss has those benefits too. A blowout would be discouraging but not season altering imo.

Look at the way we played the best of the West at Home last week. This team because of their talent and compete level rarely gets blown out. Opening night with Celts recieving their rings was a tough draw for a team with 4 of 5 new starters trying to all acclimate to one another.

Bottomline anything is possible, but us getting blown-out on 3 nights rest would surprise me.

No Jrue or OG is disappointing. Wish we got to see both teams at full strength

Im afraid another team will swoop in.


I think the Knicks will tell him he's gonna get moved up and he will wait. Mitch/TJ/Wright incoming.

Yeah that makes sense...that they'd atleast have a verbal agreement in place. Bubble season TJ Waren was a monster.... Bench not looking to shabby in the near future. Huks emergence only adds to my sentiment.

I never knew TJ was nearly a 20 point scorer at one point in his career. I hope Knicks do pick him up in March, would definitely provide a boost over Shamet.

As badly as I want to win this game, the reality is that we are the worst 3pt defending team in the league... and, we will be without OG.

We are a dangerous team on any given night, but until we improve that, we have no chance against Cleveland or Boston on 7-8 out of 10 nights. It's not all doom and gloom. I say this, hoping to see a change in schematics. I'm really hoping to be surprised at how we defend the 3pt line tonight. I just don't expect it - given how stubborn Thibs is.

I think the story goes is that he was really good, starter material, then had an injury, Pacers had high hopes for him, but never materialized.
