Beautiful pass by Simmons.

Atrocious call on White.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

IMO Queta needs to sag a little more on these pick and rolls.  He shows too hard and doesn't have the agility to catch back up with his man at the basket.

I'd be pretty happy with a bench of Minott, Hauser, Hugo, Queta beyond this year

(Of course with a starting center added via FA or trade next summer + getting Tatum back)
I'd keep Boucher as well as getting another PG

I already had him as the starting 4 lol, but actually you're right. PP-White-Jaylen-Tatum-Center
only caught that because I've been thinking who'd be worth keeping and in what role.  Tatum is either starting at SF or PF.   Boucher might work at starting PF if we go White, Brown, Tatum, Boucher, Center.  may seriously need to bring PP off the bench as the backup PG

I honestly didn't even realize Jordan Clarkson was a Knick now.

We only have 6 points so far this quarter.  Mazzula's rotations have been terrible.

PP has been struggling big time. Let?s see if these C?s have it in them to mount a comeback.

Pritchard is going to have to answer the call if he's really a starting guard in this league.  I don't see it, personally, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

a couple more games like this, Joe should move him back to the bench and start Simons

Basketball is a game of runs. But this team is giving up some insane runs to these teams so far. Barely any resistance on some of them, especially PHI in the 4th and now NY this quarter

I agree.  He's perfect off the bench.  I don't agree with Joe's decision to start him over Simmons.  White can handle the ball.

25-6 quarter for NY and a 14-0 run now. Might as well start the tanks  :P

Just starting watching the game. Wow, talk about schizophrenic quarters. What happened to the Celtics, both offense and defense in the second quarter?

Jump shooting team that can't defend or rebound. It is shaping up to be a very long season.
