so glad Fournier is gone. Truly a terrible defender. Jaylen seems to always get the other team's worst. He's eating all night. He should be shooting every time down the floor

Defense from Rob and Grant has got to be better. Loving the groove on offense

Brown drawing the D and kicking even though he is on fire. Beautiful to see.

Fournier should not be getting basic baseline layups

The Jays are looking great! Nice kickout from Brown to Tatum in the corner, and Tatum finds Rob for the layup! LFG

That's why the Jaylen Brown for Bradley Beal trade proposal didn't make sense to me.

Even if Beal is the better offensive player, Jaylen is better on the defensive side of the ball, and Jaylen is bigger and taller.

The way Jaylen gets hot sometimes is scary.. He did this a bit last season, obviously too when he dropped 40 in 29 minutes or whatever it was. Crazy.

LOve that pass by Tatum. that's gonna be there all the time cause when he drives, he draws the defensive attention on him, so someone is gonna be open. if it's time lord wide open under the basket, that's a pass he's gotta make every time
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

I'm not sure I like the switch d yet. leaves the matchups in their favor. sure, grant and rob can defend kemba and fournier well enough, but i dont want them to regularly.

I wonder if Thibs is being forced to start Kemba and Fournier. They're sieves on defense. This can't last
