I’ll start with the perfect bookends to the big 3. A traditional playmaking point guard and an old-fashioned defensive minded center – so rare to find either on one team much less both. Watching them take the reins on offense and defense really been the highlight of the past weeks for me. I didn't think Rondo would really start to breakout until the Big 3 era was over. And Perk with the short offseason I wasn’t expecting much improvement from either. Big Baby and Leon too (come back strong Leon) really impressed me in KG’s absence. Honorable mention to Bill Walker who is doing an admirable job as the garbage time allstar dunker
They’ve all still got a ways to go but I’m marveling at their more consistent competitive and assertive play these days. Next season is months away but I’m really excited to see what the young ones will be playing like with another offseason to improve under their belts.
