Perk is the worst.

I do agree with him (ugh, hurt to say) that we need to establish a 2-man game to close games out. Our best bet is Tatum/KP really developing that. Idk why we were running a Tatum/Al 2-man game late against Minny.

Definitely agree with that, regardless of JB's perspective on it per Wilbon's point.

My comment was more to him questioning the Holiday trade at the beginning of the show because it hurt our depth, even when both Brogdon and Timelord have already been dealing with significant injuries (Timelord's obviously more serious, but hamstring injuries are complex, too).

The floor is interesting for the tournament gimmick, but I'm glad we don't have dark color floors all the time. It just feels unnatural and almost hard to see.

You also wonder if it affects shooters at all, similar to how backgrounds behind the goal can affect them.

I think it's hideous.

The court thing is ridiculous. Idk if players and fans there feel any different about this game, but it doesn’t feel to me like there’s any added value.

Great start JB!   Great player.

the floor makes the court look a bit smaller.
wearing the white uniforms was literally the only option against this floor.
kind of looks like a cheap HS floor

Brown missed his first 8 jump shots last game. Starts this one hitting his first three.

Good "make shots" adjustment.

What I don't understand is, why are our city edition jerseys from last year and now this in-season tournament court Milwaukee green??? Aren't the C's supposed to be a lighter green. I don't get that part of it. If there wasn't a "Boston" or "Celtics" written anywhere you'd lowkey think it was a Milwaukee player and game
