Wanamaker cooked on defense and sends Booker to the line...

Why is he in the game again?

Wonder if SEMI's been hitting the three in practice...


likely. the story on 3s that I saw said grant was the best at it in the practices since being back.

Or he's settling for mid range fall aways, the worst shot in basketball, like all of 2018 and the Suns defense is being made to look like all-stars due to his lack of effort.


Michael Jordan was a mid range scorer. Kevin Durant is a mid range scorer. Paul Pierce was a mid range scorer. Kobe Bryant was a mid range scorer. Kawhi Leonard is a mid range scorer.

Jayson Tatum has been shooting the mid range shot since high school. He is a mid range scorer. This is not going to change. Whether you like it or not.

Mid range shot =/= BAD.


The game has changed whether you realize it or not.


“The game has changed whether you realize it or not.” :lol: :lol: :lol:

If the game has changed in that way so much I wonder why James Harden still has 0 championships.

The last 2 finals MVPs have been elite mid range scorers. You clearly do not play/understand basketball.

Grant got an ugly bump on his forehead from that Ayton elbow.

Just wanna say the minute Grant Williams got into the game, the Celtics took the lead and started playing much better defense than with Kanter.

Kanter has scored a lot, but still.

Tatum getting a rookie whistle is offensive.

Is was on his pre draft scouting reports as one of his biggest red flags.

Yep. We're playing quicker too. 1st Q offense has been a slog. Less iso in the 2nd Q. More screening, movement, and passing, nice to see.

Grant just knows how to play a winning brand of basketball. His fundamentals + instincts are insane.

Assuming the starters done after the first half? They're playing a lot of minutes out there
