wtf Grant. there was no need to help on that. smart was doing fine defending sengun in the post there. SMH

now Grant leaves Augustin wide open for a 3.

let's pull him and see what Juancho can do.

we're up by 13 anyways, why not..

AL is beautiful, that's it.

God damn, Horford, save some of that for the Finals.

Al hasn't aged a day, Sam Presti a real one for sending him home early last year

yes, I get that. But my point is that even a extremely experienced player with a proven track record can be way off. a young shooter who is "off" doesn't make him a bad shooter like some suggest.

No, he's a bad shooter because that is all he's shown so far. There would have to be some period to show Nesmith as being 'on' for us to suggest that he is now 'off'. Maybe he's just a bad shooter, as the stats have shown so far.

really?? he shot 35% as a rookie with sporadic playing time, which is near league average or better. But shot well over 40% for most of the second half, coincidentally when he actually played consistently. including playoffs. Killed in the simmer league again shooting near 50%, but misses in his first 2 games therefor he can't shoot?

I see we have cluelessness running rampant in here.

Rookie Splits:
54% from 2
37% from 3
79% from FT

Bad seems a bit harsh lol

I wish Tatum would towards the hoop instead of drift back for a fadeaway once he got the ball in the paint. Keep going in moreee

Grandpa Horford is showing the moves out there.

The interior defense is definitely better this season.

If the 3-point shooting improves, this team has the potential to be a top 3 team in the east.

Would love to see him get his FTA up to 7/game.

the way al is playing. making me think that if he played in the knicks game we would have won that, no doubt

Nice to see Horford showing Sengun the ropes out there!

And I like Sengun, would have been happy to have him onboard at #16 as a Horford understudy.
