Celtics (2-0) vs Hawks (2-0) Vegas SL Game #3 7/13/26

Curtis Jones is a low basketball IQ player, his nickname is the Magician.  It is because offenses disappear when he is the game?

Cenac had some nice blocks.

Is this announcer trolling Brad by repeatedly saying optionality. He has said it at least 3 times.

Amazon announcers were bad.

I could not believe the refs were allowing double hand checks on the offensive players.

I think everyone is doing that these days. The number of places I have seen make fun of "optionality" ... it is everywhere.

he should be made fun of for making up a nonsense word to justify that crap trade.  If he had simply used the correct term "options" it wouldn't have sounded like so much BS, just moderately BS

Optionality is a term finance people use. It was obnoxious, though.

I think it?s fair to say that the concerns about Carnac?s ability to protect the rim/block shots were wildly overstated, even from 3 summer league games.

Seriously.  He has a chance to have has many blocks in summer league as he did in 37 college games.  He said it was because his coach wanted him to do different things, and I think he is proving that right.

He does still need some real growth finishing near the rim, but he is tall and athletic, so it figures that should come sooner than later.

People of midling IQs often overuse new terms to try to look smart.

Definitely needs work in a lot of areas, but he looks like an NBA player to me. Excited about him
