that's a couple plays there and the last few mins by Smart - showing us some flashes of why he's a 2x all defensive team member. need more of that from him

Maybe Tatum was just toying with us, now he's got players playing him for the midrange jumper and he's dropping dimes instead. 4D chess, sorry I ever doubted you, Jayson.

Agree.

The coach is also guilty for starting 2 guards who are not good shooters.

nice pass Tatum to horford. he could be making those types of passes all day long because of the insane amount of defensive attention he draws

liking al's defense tonight

True.

It's laughable that both Smart and Schroder are in there at the same time.

This 2nd quarter is kinda what I expected I would have seen for two games now. Hopefully they keep it up. We are getting some great shots ans look way more active defensively.

Horford is such a difference maker. If we had him in the ECF over Hayward I think we have a chip right now.
