Giving the ball to the star of last night's game might be an okay idea.

First Nike has teams wearing whatever jerseys where ever (with like 1000 alternates), now they got guys rocking Karate Kid headbands. Almost makes me forgive Adidas for the sleeved jerseys

The unit has one guy playing defense in Smart. Rozier, Morris, Tatum and Hayward have been horrible on defense tonight.

Nah let's watch Rozier dribble in circles and Morris rebuild TD Garden instead.

Pretty clear you can't play Rozier without one of Hayward/Horford on the floor.

Marcus Morris reminds of Marcus Morris his entire career except he's not shooting 3.2 standard deviations better than his mediocre career averages for a 30 game stretch where everyone fell in love with him for some **** ing reason.

Every possession NEEDS to run through Hayward or Horford. No one else knows what to do with the ball at all.

Not sure yet. Morris has taken all the shots.

Not sure why Al didn’t play the last 6 minutes of the half. Solid first half. Heild and Fox must be a headache to guard due to how much they run around the court while being fast

That 5 man group that ended the half should NEVER be allowed to play together ever again. And putting Rozier at ANY time on the floor with Morris is an exercise in ineptitude.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Morris is taking wide open shots not a contested mid range the issue right now is his defense.

He’s made 2 nice moves for 4 points and made a few nice passes. But he hasn’t been aggressive enough. Part of it is on him, part on lack of ball movement.

Good. They didn't give him the ball enough but he was doing well.
