Brown fitting in with the right defense

Smart has no hesitation moves at all. No chance at a clean look at a layup.

Al with the nice turn around jumper to give the Celtics the lead!
Al with a quick 5 to start the 3rd.

Yeah but he got two strong rebounds in traffic on back to back plays. Took one coast to coast with a great assist to Amir.

**** yeah! Love Marcus running the show. Wish he would go more into the defender when he goes for lay ups on a fast break to draw fouls.

Ball is just as good but he plays with more fire and all around just looks better than Fultz.
Ball flat out can't break down a defense and get to/finish at the rim like Fultz can. Fultz plays with mediocre offensive players with terrible spacing and still easily gets to the basket in the half court. Ball plays with shooters around him and almost never does. Ball is the better playmaker but Fultz is a good playmaker too. Ball has his advantages for sure, but there's nothing he can do that Fultz is flat out incapable of doing IMO. Whereas Fultz does things Ball can't.
Fultz can do things against college scrubs but he won't be able to in the NBA. Ball's deep range, passing, leadership and BBIQ are tailor made for the NBA. Ball also wins and makes teammates better unlike Fultz.
