Jaylen defense and ranged jumper are the two areas of his game I'm still not impressed with.

Damn, not a good look for Nike. These jerseys are giving off the impression of being made with cheap material.

jaylen is a good role player, nothing more nothing less. (probably emo tonight with all those missed 3's late in the game)

I gotta give the Boston and national media credit. Never has anyone tried so hard to promote and sell a total nobody as a somebody like they do with Terry Rozier. The dude won't be in the NBA in 3 years and they keep hyping him up like he's some key NBA piece.

They are literally made out of recycled materials.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Tatum looked much better in the second half. Looks like a strong rebounder. Also looks like they got that ISO out of his system real quick.

He was really impressive tonight, despite bricking it from three. I'm really high on Simmons this season (as most of us are) but now I'm even more positive given how clear the distance was between Simmons and Brown before they were drafted.

All this means is it will be easier for Embiid to tear off his jersey to reveal to all that he is indeed a superhero.

Can’t wait to see everyone’s reviews of Simmons and Fultz tomorrow.

So was Tatum impressive tonight? Missed the whole game but the box score shows he's positive and has pretty efficient numbers.
