Kornet showing his value.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Regardless of the talent I can see why Cam Thomas wasn’t getting regular game time last year lol

We need Stevens on the floor more than we need Hauser.

When the Cs were spiraling, Jrue took control of the game.

That's what a great PG does in situations like this.

Last season the game would get out of hand if the Cs spiraled.

Kornet isn’t a bad as we act, he’s a serviceable big. As he’s showing right now.

Easier to stretch the floor too against double bigs.

It does get a little icky with the depth when one of the 6 top players are out. Forces you to play more of the bench players who are just significantly less impactful.

Timeouts don't magically change that.

Hmm...we went down by 4. Instead of calling a timeout, Mazzulla lets his guys play on, subs in Pritchard and Horford for Brissett and Hauser. Then we score a couple of buckets, cut the lead to 1, forcing the Nets to call a timeout.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

This is like one of those games in the 80s when Cousy would say, ‘the Celtics are gonna win this but it won’t be pretty’.
