other than Grant and maybe PP, there have been a ton of bad shots from 3.. Smart has 2 wide open airballs..

Schröder missed a few, as well.

Schroeder is very careless with the ball

That was a little better. Not great by any means, but better.

Closer than it should've been, but a win is a win.

Hopefully the Celts can hang with the Hornets tomorrow because the Hornets are unbeaten to start the season.

Grant Williams is playing fantastic. Three good games.

They beat the Nets tonight.

The defense, especially the interior, is better compared to last season.

But the shooting is not good.

So far Grant Williams is the only one who can consistently make 3-point shots.

it's only the 3rd game and he still getting used to a new team, new system. I'm willing to give him some time before writing him off..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Bringing Horford off the bench would bring more balance to the rotations.

Good win. Much needed.

Props to Grant, Horford, Tatum, Schroder and Ime.

Rob was non existent.

Smart was awful again on offense but played his best game of the season defensively.

Nesmith was a disappointment in limited minutes.

Agreed. Schröder is worth that $84 M that the Lakers offered him.
