JB will hit a three sometime this century.

Order kinda restored with that funky center-less lineup.

When he gets guys in the perimeter he looks solid, once they get inside the 3 it’s over. He needs to do his work early.

Weird first half but incredibly entertaining.

Tatum great floor game aside from some bad TOs but it’s legit night and day when he’s in or sitting.

Correct. Or switch out so he doesn't get stuck in the paint.

Should have sent it ahead 3 seconds earlier.

His shooting inside the arc has been great too, or at least it feels like it has. His 3 ball has gone away completely somehow.

Got another game tomorrow so a nice 3rd quarter would benefit this team. Get a huge lead.

With JT +20 this game would be Celts by 20 if we got anything from the bench other than PP

Queta, Walsh, Scheierman … when this many frontline guys are out, you gotta come in hungry and be IMPACTFUL in your minutes!!

Has PP hit a halfcourt-ish BB this season? We need one for good measure.

I thought those skills would overcome his lack of athleticism, and I wanted us to draft him. But other than the rare really good pass, this dude gets literally nothing done in his time out there.

Jonathan Mogbo is not a perfect player nor is Jamal Shead but, whenever we play Toronto I’m always like, “I kinda like the Raps draft.”

I’m not giving up on Scheierman because bball IQ overcomes a lot and Baylor has not even played a 100 minutes but it’s not looking good for Brads lone 1st round pick

Yeah, I'm not writing him off yet either, but man, he's been pretty brutal so far.

Impressed by the playmaking from Tatum. The form on his shot is different from last year. You will take league average from 3 and 80% from the line because of how well rounded he is as a player. Deserves 1st team All-NBA this season.

Need the Jays to be shooting well from 3 come playoff time. Right now brown isn’t even close on a lot of them

Putting Sam in a roll position when it's clear he doesn't know what to do in that position......is a choice.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Annoying. He shouldn't really work that hard for a shot.
