I wonder how much of this is a case of us being awesome or them being abysmal
One thing I will say - there have been about 4 plays where Drummond (shouldn’t have) but could’ve gotten a foul called. If that were embiid it would have been 4 calls for sure - for an 8 point swing.

Again, how did these guys beat Brooklyn two games in a row - once when they had all three of KD, Kyrie, and Harden?

I remember watching Brown in Summer league and how raw he was.

His layups were an adventure.

Years later? Star.

And some people want to write off our rookies on the basis of one bad month :angel:
I mean people are writing off our best players by nitpicking on their weaknesses with no regard for their circumstances lol.
Jaylen Brown for All-NBA

I remember one game against the sixers he was trying to dunk (unsuccessfully) on Simmons every time he defended him . 🤣😂
How he overleapt him.

He was raw but I think I decided that first game that Danny made a good pick. I remember him attacking the basket without hesitation.

Question:

The Celtics have scored 101 pts thus far.

Will the Cavs score 101 points tonight?

He was even showing that MJ fadeaway even way back on summer league. He polished it now and he's on his way to his first All-Star appearance

His lack of hesitation has always been my favorite thing about his game - and one thing I wish would rub off on Tatum, sometimes.  He has always been aggressive and quick to make a decision with the ball in his hands.  That's hard to defend.

This is going to be another game where Brown could hit 50 but won’t be playing the 4th

Amazing what can happen when you play without pressure
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

I mean they look abysmal. Such a weird season with all the blowouts.

Even Brown loses the package you ordered sometimes.

If I recall correctly, one of his perceived weaknesses was his 3 pt shooting because he shot under 30% at Cal. Safe to say those concerns were totally unfounded.
