I wonder if it's going to be a Mitch OR Josh Hart type rotation going forward.

We kept hearing how good Pritchard and Derrick White were... But without the gravity from all those other good players that the Celts lost...they have come down to earth.

Going by how the minutes break down in the box score

Kolek is the pimary back-up for Brunson

Shamet is the primary back-up for Bridges

Yabusele is the primary back-up for KAT

Hart is the primary back-up for OG

Clarkson and Hart both get minutes backing up McBride

I don’t really see it yet. I mean Sabonis touched the ball a ton in the post. I feel like on that run he allowed Towns Towns to touch the ball and read with his passes. Not nearly as consistent as Sabonis just a fee plays. Spamming OG cut to basket with actual off ball picks.

Definitely “AND”!

I’m just imagining what a completely healthy squad can do.

We forget more basketball than Thibs know lol. Anybody who knows ball knew we were being held back. Since year 1 spamming Elfrid Payton I did not like that guy.
