JT's form on his 3's does look improved to me. Quicker and more fluid.

Celtics bench playing well on both ends. Good ball movement and solid defensive rotations.

Every once in a while I still see comments about how the Celtics announcers are terrible homers, but Tommy Heinsohn was the one who famously said homer stuff and he's been passed away for years now (RIP). Mike Gorman is retired now too, so it's a totally different duo.

Scal and Drew get a little goofy at times, which may not be everyone's cup of tea, but they are very knowledgeable about the league and happy to compliment other teams and players. I enjoy them.

KAT looks good for NY. His spacing and skillset at the 5 is unfair.

Defense obviously a concern but he already makes NY look different than last year.

Deuce McBride looks like DD leaving gave him the ultimate green light and he's making it look good.

QPR wrote:It's a shame LeBron's ego took priority over Bronny's development. There's an impactful defensive player in there, but he clearly needed more college development.

Also more development in high school. He’s been sheltered from comp his entire life and looks like someone who lacks meaningful reps.

Washington misses 2 FTs with game on line. Cut him.

Alex Sarr looks invisible out there. Not sure what Wizards saw in him.

I'm sorry, maybe I haven't seen enough, but Sarr just doesn't impress me at all.
