This feels like a Sam Hauser series instead of a Grant Williams series. Good to see him getting some early minutes.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Celtics defense looks way better early than what they were showing in the regular season lol. Some tough 50-50 balls went the hawks way which they converted but other than that the Celtics defense looks last year elite level.

The NBA app locked me out of my account between the sixer game and the start of this game, so I missed the tip. Did white start at PG over Smart?

Rob always looks like he's playing casually. I think it's a combination of his athleticism and suddenness -- he only has to explode into action for shorter periods of time than other guys -- plus his general Rastafarian-like demeanor.

A lot of good looks near the rim for Tatum and Brown early. Honestly have no clue why? Is it clever play design or bad defense.

We're playing really well. The Jays keep attacking inside, and our defense is solid.

This is just a mismatch. Celtics guards are too big and too good defensively for Trae. We’re getting basically anything we want anywhere on the court. Rob looks fantastic. Murray is gonna have to go full ISO Joe 2007 for the Hawks to stand a chance
