IKR. Queta should have something up there. He's a workhorse.
Basically, he's our only Starter level Center.

Sure he is, but other players impact winning more in each game (at least in the eye test). He is our rock in the middle.
However, in the last 2 games I thought that Garza played better (more impact on winning) and he didn't got any love either

Garza got an "Honorable Mention" 2 Games ago.
We voted for 3, that night. HM's only stay up for 1 Game, unlike VC & CP.

All 3 x Two-Ways are (planned) OUT.

This game is on NBC Sports Boston and League Pass, right?

For some reason it's not in my League Pass listings as a game that exists.

Since Walsh is playing we can probably afford to let JT recover a bit more. It’s been 7 months and 2 weeks….
Jordan Walsh goes top 10 in a 2023 redraft.

Give him some time. :wink:


P.S.:
I firmly believe that Tatum will be back on Feb. 8, 2026, against the Knicks.
Kind of starting back, where he left off.

Gotta take care of business against lesser teams and stack wins. Would like to see a lead going into the fourth and the game never really in question.
