Our starting line up is way too good...time for Muscala to miss 10 3's and Diallo to suck

Horford has a weird looking shot to me. Clearly that matters very little since it’s very good. The block by bazley was a really nice defensive play.

Gobert looks a lot bigger without Steven Adams next to him.

Staring to be a little less excited about Theo.

Do any of our guards know that boxing out is legal?

Shai's midrange is so smooth you have to think he'll expand that range eventually

Theo looks smaller than 6’5” to me.

He doesn’t have to shoot like this to be a solid contributor. He feels like the kind of guy that’s regularly going to miss about 20 threes in a row over three games and then go off on the fourth game.
