I missed this.

This is excellent. I think Udonis can slow down a bit on his delivery but otherwise this is good analysis and it's fun because it's like a basketball practice setting involving the on air talent, with a coach explaining the concepts to everyone

Josh Hart grabbing 14 boards in 19 minutes. Dude is an all-time teammate.

They already exceeded their regular season win totals against Celtics and Cavs from last season. That’s a win.

stuff to work on in the 2nd half

let cut down those turnovers and OG looks like he avoided a serious injury

keep it going!

Never in doubt in this game, there will be ups and downs by our players as they are figuring out and welcome back Hart. 8-)

There's still room to improve but another very good W.


Once these guys finally trust each other in full, I think there will be a lot of 3 point attempts for both of them and everyone else.

I think this offense can become high octane

We seriously just smacked down a team while shooting 38.4% from the field. Our offensive boards were on point, Jalen and KAT have been really hard to keep off the line for other teams these past 2 games, and we've taken a healthy amount of threes.

Still not sure what to think about this team yet. Some great moments where everything is clicking, still a lot of turnovers sloppiness and lackadaisical down the stretch. But still we cruised to a win. Boston looked really bad though. Anyway … 2-0!

Towns 26 pts 13 rebs on grade 2 quad
Brunson had 31 and iced it in the clutch
Hope OG is ok…

The structure is working, any player not buying in should be now. Thankfully we don't play OKC until March, looks like our biggest challenge will be handling ball pressure like last year.

That drop off in the 4th was nice would love to see them run a lil more PnR together.

Though kat isnt a great screener and brunson just doesn't seem to look for him much.

I was unsure about Josh's role earlier tonight but him doing this is all I needed to see. He's going to hustle and do the dirty work while everyone else runs and guns

I like it

Other notes

Clarkson was a +12 and Shamet was a -8 (worst). I don’t know why Shamet plays and hopefully his minutes decrease soon.

Not sure where some of the guys from game 1 went. No hukporti, Jamison..

Great win. I thought it would be a slow start with a new system.

I also hate to say it but I really liked the Amazon broadcast all around

KP has some kind of medical disorder. Plus I just read that he had asthma as a teen.
