i have faith that nesmith will be an nba player. my question is how good he will be for the celtics. if he can play credible defense and make a ton of threes he is extremely valuable.

whenever a team doubles any of tatum, brown, or walker, if nesmith can make the three he makes the celtics very, very hard to beat.

He's a better athlete than I'd thought, and his handle is decent. I think that bodes well for him being a legit roleplayer in this league.

Nesmith should focus on driving more like Carson. That will get his confidence going. He will be fine. Is showing decent feel.

Starting to think two big lineup can work with Kemba. Kudos to Brad to keep experimenting.

Okay. Hot take. I'll say it.

Brown is playing at a top 5 player in the league level right now.

Fight me!!!

lol we all know  how much you love Brown. Cs need to sell high on Tatum he is taking shots away from Brow. Brown celing is MJ.

Yeah, ummmmmm....no.

Jayson is amazing and was playing at a top 15 player level in the league before he got sick.

Keep both and you very much have a MJ- Pippen synergy type situation that could yield a bunch of titles.

lol you passed the test... Cs can pick Tatum.

Seriously though, the reason I like JB has MJ is his burst to the basket. If players begin to respect his mid range game and have to get tight on him his burst to the basket will be Jordanesque.

Brown is starting to beast it daily! Still young and a few years from his prime. Tatum and Brown could really form a dynamic duo that could be tough to beat!

Carsen Edwards played well when he came in.

My favourite got player of the game.

Hard to make a real judgement overall as Cleveland were awful.

Going back over the highlights, one thing that really stood out to me was Carsen's ability to finish inside. Particularly, the bit where he blew by Okoro (a good perimeter defender) and finished over and through McGee (a 270lb 7 footer). Hadn't seen that strength or confidence inside before from him.

Imagine if he could actually develop into a player worth giving minutes to!
