So we're neck and neck with a crippled Boston team. This isn't a good sign?

Scottie just doesn't move well.

There are games where he does, but it's rare. He looks like he labors to get around. Great players move around the court with ease. He's never been that guy with consistency.

He should operate from the post.

Ingram is awesome. I've always liked his game. I hope he can stay healthy.

Like I said in another thread........you can't play NCAA style pressure defense in the NBA. Refs won't allow you to be physical enough.

This won't work on a lot of nights.

Looks quicker, stronger. The floater is finally going down.

He's taking more 3s.

Good to see.

Always funny how two people can watch the same player and come away with completely different takes. I do agree it is good seeing him being aggressive shooting the 3.

You disagree with the rest of my assessment?

Tbf, I have been skimming through these games so maybe it's not the most accurate assessment.

Scottie might have to get traded if this kind of play continues into the regular season. He should be beasting on this g league Celtic squad

I would love to have Pritchard on this team. He actually reminds me of Lowry a bit. Exact same build. Moves very similar. Can shoot it. Tough/ gritty.
