Celtics (0-0) vs Grizzlies (0-0) SL Game #1 7/11/25

[DefenseWinsChamps]

Hugo is so raw. There is no way he?s playing for the C?s this year. It?s Spain or Maine.

Disagree

What number is he?

28

[Who]

They should put the numbers next to player's name in the box scores. So you can tell who is who. So many players I have never seen before. Hard to tell them apart.

Disagree

28

So he was the guy dribbling the ball at the start of that last possession and running PnR? That is good to see.

[Who]

Is #29 Max Shulga?

Yeah. Shulga, their other late 2nd rounder this year, is 29 and has been running some point too.

[Who]

Amari is an NBA athlete. Moves well.

[DefenseWinsChamps]

Hugo has been the primary defender on Jaylen Wells so far. Wells was on the all-rookie 1st team last year.

Wells is 1-6 from the field with 2 turnovers so far.

Disagree

How? He doesn?t look good on either end. Looks OK on defense, wouldn?t say good. Terrible offensively. Can?t shoot at all.

[celticinorlando]

Shugla will spend a lot of time in Maine. He's not close to being a NBA player.

Amari is an NBA athlete. Moves well.

Yes he does. He's done a really nice job positionally as the big man defensively in the pnr game so far. I'd like to see him make his man miss a bit more as a primary defender. He's forced tough shots and been in position, but he hasn't been able to force misses.

He's been a bit out of position as well rebounding-wise. I'd like to see more from him there. Do a bit more of a Kenny Lofton Jr. impression.

He is all effort at this point. Another one of Brad's favorites. Athletic with no shooting.

You are just wrong here. He's made 2 threes so far. You can't say "Can't shoot at all" when he's made 2 threes.

And his defense on Jaylen Wells has forced 1-6 shooting with 2 TOs. So his defense has been good.

[DefenseWinsChamps]

Shugla will spend a lot of time in Maine. He's not close to being a NBA player.

I agree with this. Early in the game, he handled the pressure well, but hasn't done as well in this third quarter.

[celticinorlando]

Celtics did not come out this half with the energy and focus needed. They look pretty bad.

[Who]

Those are some interesting shirts the C's coaching staff are wearing.
