Brown must be the one with none right?

But, very pleased with Queta.

I love his screening. he seems like he's finding out where he needs to be, and I haven't felt like he didn't know where to be in a while. I wish we'd toss it up to him more.

I hear the Maine Celtics are going to be in Orlando this week. Maybe that's more their speed.

I don’t mind Queta asking for the ball all the time. He is supposed to make himself available. Doesn’t seem to bother him if they don’t throw it up to him

Cs just shat on my face today. JB with his DIY kit. PP making plays WITH the ball. JT with his pullup three. Barely any ball movement all game. Sub-50% assist rate for the team if I had to guess. Doubting they can play well against physicality. And yet we blew the Magic out.

Easy VC for JB. Al was really good too. I think JT can do better in punishing mismatches. The couple times he got switched on to Cole Anthony, he settled for a tough fadeaway.

4-0 against 2 good Eastern Conference teams, even at home, is pretty tough, but the team took care of business.

I think Orlando's gonna be good. Come to think of it, they're kinda built like Boston with their 2 star forwards and a Marcus Smart (Suggs).

This is huge.

Going 2-0 against the Cavs and now 2-0 against the Magic at home.

My dream of a 25-5 start is still alive.

JB the easy call for VC. He has been terrific for the last few weeks now. Under control. Making smart reads. Taking the right shots. Finding the right matchup. Absolutely impressed.

JT gets the CP with a great overall floor game. Didn't settle at the 3 point line. Missed a few turnarounds inside the arc but still the right shots. 4-6 from 3 today. Defense has been nails for both lately too.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Jaylen Brown is a good basketball player.

Another game where Jaylen mostly played the right way.

Not as a great a win as the shooting variance made it in the 4th but we were due for one of these nights.

Still musing on what final piece Brad should add to this mix...
