I wonder if guys who are getting the sit for the night are getting assignments of what to watch for

Harsh take: Simons and Poole are basically the same player.

A brown/simons 2 man game is mot a good idea

Brown swore at the Ref. Got a Tech.
He's gotta be better than that.

Glad Minott is working out for you guys. I was screaming for him to get more play time last year. Out of curiosity is his starting normal or injury related?

Brown is low IQ player for such a smart young man

part of early season experimenting -- three different guys have tried out what is normally 'Tatum's spot' in the starting lineup.
So far we LOVE Minott and most of us can spell his name!

Why is simons shooting from 10 fert outside the 3pt line?

There is no excuse to lose this game. Pelicans are not good.

Gotta credit P, 3 isn’t falling, he’s getting to the paint for that little fade. Do what you can!

One of our more emotional players, which I would argue helps make him as good as he is
We haven't had an enforcer in forever, but Jaylen is cut from cloth at least vaguely related to Marcus Smart and Marcus Morris
Leads to some techs and bad fouls here and there -- and obviously he tries nearly impossible things on offense sometime -- but I wouldn't call his BBIQ low -- just not high

Celtics out rebuilding the Pelicans 28-16, Pelicans 3 offensive rebounds.

Rebound the ball, you win the game

zion is a bum. easily could've dominated this game but took the night off instead.

True, though Murphy III hasn't gotten going yet, and he can.
Still, if the Cs lose this one I will find the tank looking a little sexier tonight
