And j b's shooting is unreal so far..

Love JB driving there and finding Kornet. Don’t always have to take the final shot with like a second remaining

If Poeltl is pronounced "purtle," can turtle be spelled "toeltl"?

This is the most remarkable thought I have about the Craptors tonight.

Generating a good look before the clock expires, is that legal?

Good role player, good fit for this team. Just a really solid 7th/8th man. And he's still getting better.

Extend him this summer!
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Cornet and quetta are proving my philosophy correct.. You do not need a center to be able to shoot threes.. You always need somebody around the rim just photos finishes from the other players.. Makes me wonder half. The time big a l is standing outside and we do not get that benefit..

I will check the box score. But it seems like our big guys are like nine out of ten or something..

Decent contributions from our bench guys today.

Thought it was a little weird that we had Brissett, Queta and banton (3 non-shooters) all in the game at the same time, but overall that group didn't do *that* bad and they were only in there together for a couple of mins..

Kornet making KP expendable in that half. Maybe we can trade him for Olynyk and Clarkson.

You don't have to trade him, but an upgrade over him would really increase the Celtics chances of winning the Title.

Our bigs are currently eight out of nine at the moment..... Obviously being set up nice by our team in general..
