PG: Scottie overwhelms Celtics

This is why I took Scottie Barnes in the 6th round in fantasy. He’s going to give me everything and he’s going to play within his game which will factor on his FG% lol.

It's embarrassing watching him trip over himself when trying to dribble, telegraphed shots getting blocked whether at the rim or at the perimeter

OG is a slow starter. He's probably their best shooter. They'll eventually start going in.

OG always shot as a catch & shoot player, now he's trying to create off the dribble and it's been an ugly disaster

He was the obvious pick by far at 4. What a flipping home run.

It's crazy how fluid he looks since preseason. He looks even more fluid than he did last game. Looks like a completely different player and he played against a much better team. He also played more like a guard this game.

but what happens when Pascal is back?

Move precious to the bench...

Pascal is not a 5.

It’s going to be

FVV
OG
BARNES
SIAKAM
PRECIOUS

Without a doubt.

Put Scottie at PG and Fred at SG (you can put him at SG for "show" but he should play the PG over Fred)

Precious with 15/15 and a couple steals in 24 minutes. Beast numbers.

Needs to clean up his shot selection and switches defensively but big potential with him.

ya right, put some respek

OG was an absolute monster on defense - he got to the line - earning fouls for the team, and had a demoralizing dunk against brown

Yeah, OG played more within himself tonight. It's good that's he's not pressing and hijacking the offense.

Pascal may have found some joy in having Scottie on the team.

A joyful Pascal would be incredible.

He will go back to being a shooter once Siakam comes back.

He’s going to be the teams starting SG when Siakam comes back anyways.

This game was such a great palate cleanser from the Wizards game.

Man this is gunna be such a high variance rollercoaster season lol. Buckle up RealGM

On to the next one

honestly the whistle this game is always the x-factor

if they refs arent giving ticky tack fouls to opposing superstars (and specifically targetting scottie to take him out of the game) then our defense and our guys will run rampant on this league

how many times did we see Tatum bump his way into the paint which in other games or with other refs (that you know their names) we get hosed?

He is the one. He already believes in himself. He was not shook by what happened last game. I saw what they rest had to offer, and this is a team that must now rally around Scottie and Siakam as our dynamic duo. I also expect great things from Yuta. Fred, well he can park himself on the elbow and wait for his open threes and I'm fine with that.
