both juancho and parker are much worse defensively than Grant. you really think juancho or parker would do any better defending randle than Grant?

Randle is an all-star. he's gonna get his.

randle just scored on smart, and then he scored on nesmith. the dude is good


In this matchup perhaps Grant Williams is clearly too short and Randall is shooting right over him easily
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Ball movement has been good outside the first 5 minutes and don't have as many points as they should.

Yup, JB scores early and JT scores late. That's what they do.

JT will finish the game with 26 or more points and we're very likely to win. If we don't we panic and THROW THE **** TEA IN THE **** HAHBAH!
It's the Knicks. Of course the Celtics are gonna win.

But these 14-0 runs just can't happen.

It just happened so idk maybe we have to be realistic about our expectations regarding the first game of the season with like 6 new players, a new coach, one starter out with Covid and another just returned from it. Wish we were watching the '86 Cs again but then we wouldn't be able to post during the games:)

When the team goes on one of those scoring droughts where they chuck up a 3 in 5 straight possessions, it probably would be worth considering putting Kanter in for some low post option and offensive boards.

So I can't point out that it's silly that Randle is getting MVP chants?

I thought he wants to get free throws this season lol. Same old chucking if 3’s so far for Jayson.

God first half. Brown, wow. Tatum came alive late though I like his looks.

Schroeder gotta be better. Grant doesn’t provide anything.

Lol Tatum really needs to look to drive in or draw a foul to get himself going instead of taking multiple threes to see one go down. Granted Tatum was open on most of them just gotta stop being stubborn and try something else to see a basket go down.
