I believe Scary Terry leads the NBA in scoring at the moment.

Edit: nope, Ja Morant got 44 so Rozier is only #2. But Terry is leading NBA with 10 3pt shots made per game!

Poor Man's Rozier Ja Morant edged him out by 2 points but that was a pretty good debut by TRo. 10 made threes!

overpaid former celtics combine for 70, and their team blown out by the love-less cavs.

overheard gordon to robyn: those few extra mil really be worth it? really?

September 30, 2016, after a rookie season where he averaged 1.8ppg on 32.6 TS%:

Terry Rozier is going to be very good to great. May make IT expendable, may coexist, I don't know. But, he'll be one of the top 2-3 players on this team at some point.

I'm not "declaring victory", cause he's still a long way from "great". But I can't let myself off the hook for this prediction either, given how much sauce I put on it.

Keep balling, Terry. Wish it was with us.

How is a Achuiwa playing for the Heat already but Nesmith can't get a minute? The Celtics need to learn from the Heat and play their young players so they are ready for the playoffs even if they are bad initially. Possible increase their trade value if they are any good.

Doesn’t feel like there is a marquee Xmas matchup today.

No Cavs/Warriors, Battle of LA etc.

Dude just bounced Adebayo out of bounds.
Looks like a Flagrant 1.

Bledsoe is such a dink.

I was wondering why Nesmith gets no play. But Pritchard is in there.
I just think that Nesmith must not be showing enough, in practice.

Adebayo is getting beat up, huh?

If he can't get minutes while Ojeleye and Grant Williams do, then he sucks. Somehow I don't believe that is the case though.

Precious and AB make this Heat team more dangerous than last season. The East has improved dramatically.

Wiggins looks like he grew 3-4 inches, guy looks taller.
