I don't like that play defensively late in the half by D-white. He overhelped big time on that play where Hunter hit the 3.

Hauser was holding his own pretty well defending Trae. Totally unnecessary for white to completely leave his man to try and help on Trae. Gifted the hawks 3 points there.

Most of the time white makes the right play. But every now and then he makes a head scratching play like that one.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Queta and Banton move up in the Rotation.
We may have our 3rd Center. And Banton though somewhat lost, might be a decent G/F off the Bench.

Yep, If Trae was closer to Hunter, maybe. Hunter was too far away for him to recover and close out.

But Joe gives both Holiday and White the freedom to call an audible on defense every now and then.

I thought we’ve used Jaylen well so far tonight, and I’d only consider two of his shots real forces.

Great first half by Tatum who also cornered the market on turnovers for Boston. He's got 4, no one else has any.

Queta looks for real.

I didn't think banton played poorly but I also wasn't watching him enough to stand firm on it.

He missed like four guys wide open underneath, but I mind that less when we’re not asking him to run the offense lol.

He was a bit lost. But, the Kid just needs to play more.
With his height alone, he should be able to do something.

It certainly helps making our offense look good when we play bad defenses like Atlanta..

Queta

6 Rebs in 7 mins. Also 7 shot attempts.
Kid's all over the place. Give him much more playing time.
