Thibs has his work cut out for him. Walker and Fournier are net negatives and are their supposed "gets". I think it might ruin their chemistry. RJ barely touches the ball, there's very little ball movement, defense is putrid. I'm not worried about Tatums' slow start. It evens out with Brown's hot one. We need others besides them to help out.

Fun half to start. Other than Randle torching Grant, I really like what I'm seeing from the team. Maybe Juancho or Jabari off the bench in the 2nd half instead of Grant. Love the offense. Love the ball movement and unselfishness.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

JT's not used to wide-open looks. He'll turn it on in the second half!

Tatum sucked, Randle went off, we didn't score for 5 minutes and still lead by 4 on the road.

yup. Remember this is a team that finished ahead of us last season and is largely picked to do so again this year.
and you know that outside of Randle and sort of Rose, they mostly suck.
let's LAY THE WOOD IN THE SECOND HALF!

Simple Fix. Start another Wing.. Tatum goes to the 4.. Tatum and Smart take turns guarding Randle. Randle can't guard Tatum . Romeo or Nesmith Bring much more than Grant.. Trust me..
Ball movement has been really good. Tatum and Nesmith need to see one 3 go in and look out.

2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..

For once I agree with you. This whole Celtics season is going to be decided by who consistently can score with Tatum and Brown. Where is the 3rd option going to come from on the Celtics?
Yes, Kemba and Fournier are going to give Thibs nightmares this season

I'm with JVG. Brown is making shots and Tatum's missing shots, but both are playing well. Brown teed up Tatum for a WIDE open 3 late in the 2nd half in the corner, Tatum just missed it.
