It's his 6th.

Stevens and Banton had 1 each. Kornet has 2. Otherwise all, the starts have gone to the top 6 guys plus Hauser.

Hauser had 8 starts last season, but in that case there were 8 guys who had more starts than he did. (5 starters, 2 Williamses, 1 Blake)

Claxton was supposed to be this DPOY-level center but he's really mid.

Seems like Claxton gives up a lot to Zinger.
Only supposed to be 4" difference.

JT-KP PnR is unstoppable. At least the Nets can't stop it.

It was planned.
They've been talking about Vacations, for a bit now.

JT on another level right now.

No hesitation to zip the ball to KP.

This is winning basketball.

JT is now playing to win.

That trick shot was too easy. White should've dunked it.

Everything starting with Tatum or Porzingis is amazing.

That's why I said all this Celtics team need is time.

Once they figure it out, watch out!

Looks like the Cs are ahead of schedule.

I expected something like this to happen after the ASB.

But looks like the Cs are fast learners.

If we win and the Cavs lose, we will essentially have an 8 game lead in the East since we own the tiebreak over the Cavs :rock:

Tatum always gets better as the season goes on. He needs to peak come playoff time though.
