Hats off to Green, but we're giving these guys way too many good looks.

Horford has been great on defense for us, our guys picked up the intensity a bit in the 2nd quarter following his example.

What a pass by Tatum!

Have to say - a lot of this seems chemistry and early season related. Our passing has been excellent thus far this season, though just need to clean things up a bit.


It'd also help if we can convert some shots on those passes.

At least we’re up at the half! What a hard game to watch. Missing JB  (and Romeo) is taking its toll offensively. Nessie better wake up in the 2nd half. We need more sources for scoring badly.

Yeah, Green makes some tough shots but we're also being slack on him sometimes. Same with Porter Jr.

Horford great on D but can't put the ball in the ocean tonight.

Yeah, after his great preseason he's been disappointing thus far with his shooting.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Trying to decide what is worse: letting Fournier walk away for basically nothing or taking that money saved and then using it to extend and overpay Smart. Smart is a big zero. Might be the worst contract/decision the Cs made in this offseason.

Tatum fantastic.

Grant Williams shooting the lights out.

Rob still lacks that verticality we are used to seeing. Too much weight?

I feel like his rhythm has suffered significantly after going from significant minutes to very few minutes. Something he'll need to work on, given we have the Jays ahead of him for the next 5 years

Jaylen Green is a stud.

He just needs to see one go through.

PP needs to be given the green light for 3s.  He seems hesitant to shoot.
