KD looking pretty gnarly on defense and missing some easy shots. I guess to be expected. Other than that every other East contender has a good bench except for the Celtics. Wizards 2nd team/young core looks really nice

Bane can still shoot.
Was there a doubt?  He shot 38% from 3 as a freshman and then at least 42% for his last 3 seasons.  More proven shooter than Nesmith.

I had no doubt. I was very excited when the Celtics picked him.

I really wonder if Ainge will regret trading him for a 2nd round pick.  I get that he didn’t want too many rookies and there would be a concern about playing time between him, Langford, and Nesmith, but he may turn out to be a player.  I wish we kept him.  Cutting Carson Edwards or Green would not have been a big deal.

I wish we kept him too. You can. Never have too many shooters.

Or too many wings in today’s game.  Especially when they can defend and shoot.

Celts should have taken Horton-Tucker with the 2nd round pick last season

7'1 wingspan is ridiculous.   

31 pts tonight vs Clippers.

I know its only 1 game, but that shot looks good. I seem to recall people stating he would never be good cause he couldnt shoot.

yeah I remember that

Avdija and Okoro are looking comfortable shooting the 3s.  Both should have been drafted higher

Yeah, and he's only going to get more irritating as he gets older too.

And though that seems impossible, I know that it’s true.

Malachi Flynn had a nice showing for the Raps tonight. I’m hoping to see a lot of Pritchard tomorrow night.
