why the **** are they spacing like that

Anyone else comfortable with just Tatum ISO at the end?

Really prefer not to see Det early in the playoffs. Really no other teams are crazy enough to put one guy on Kyrie like they do with AB.

Baynes for DPOY. Totally took out Drummond when he was in. Story of the game.

Really, Smart's just like me. I can only catch a football if I'm in a full sprint and full-extension diving to pluck it out of the air an inch off the ground. Wide open routine pass right into my hands? Forget it.

I absolutely hate that Hayward is out, but his injury was honestly the best thing for the development of Jayson Tatum.

Instead of being buried on the bench like Brown was all last season, he's getting meaningful NBA minutes, in crunch time, and is producing spectacularly.

This might be a team Victory Cigar tonight. I Can’t seem to really pick any one player above the rest.

Has Jaylen ever successful preformed a spin move?

He's going to hurt himself one of these days.....

Tatum started opening night with Hayward. You’re wrong.

Brown’s understanding of the game needs to improve a lot. Half the time he has no idea what he wants to do.

That’s twice he has tried to make that spin move today and he has fallen twice.

Fair enough, but it's hard to justify. I love Tatum but we do have this Kyrie dude so yeah.
