I know we have Tatum and Horford in but it’s nice to see the bench actually take and extend a lead

That's the entire point. This type of bench rotation will limit those terrible droughts we have, especially with pairings like Al and Tatum.

Welp, running things through Horford seemed to work.

It's worse for Memphis with Gasol going out of the game than it is for us with Kyrie. Gasol sat for like a minute and the Cs went on an 11-0 run.

Let's keep this going! Also, this is the Rozier we all love!

Blood in the water. We need more aggressive big-brother-picking-on-little-brother type of defensive plays.

Oh, and it'd be great if we don't leave Gasol wide open in the 4th.

Honestly the offense needs to run through Tatum on the bench... Brad already staggers his minutes so he plays with the bench. He’s the only consistent scorer.

People need to give this idea up this year.  Tatum does not consistently show enough ability to find his own shot, create for others, and shoot off the dribble to positively run a bench unit in the NBA yet.  He shows flashes but it is not there, even when he is with the starters who draw more attention he isn't lighting it up.  He is hitting good open shots.  With a defense focusing on him, he can't run anything yet.

Tatum heard you because he’s creating his own offense now

Andrew Harrion's not that good.  Surprised he has stuck in the league.

We've been a good 4th quarter team this season.  So what's the difference between the 2nd and the 4th?  Brad usually changes his rotations in the 2nd quarter.  This is working better, at least this game.  I don't mind Tatum subbing out early in the 1st and 3rd so we can use his scoring with the bench.

Exactly it’s just unfortunate to always have to rely on starters.

Al and Tatum have been connected to every single bucket in this run, mostly Al.
