Our All-Star point guard has been pretty heavily abused defensively all game already.

I'm really tired of Sullinger on defense.  He's just too slow and can't rotate properly.

The advanced stats say that Sullinger's defense is good, but it doesn't pass the eye test.

Is it just me, or does Sully look skinnier? Not sure if it's the aspect ratio of the ESPN feed or what, but he looks a bit thinner to me.

Probably look fatter next game, but curious if it's a feed issue thing.

Maybe that was Marcus ;)

Nice steal by Smart and finish by Crowder!

I think IT is sick of it too. He basically rolled the ball to sully that last inbound.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier

OMG, I always get those two confused at first with that stupid hair, too!

All star game defense is still in his blood.

This team just keeps fighting back with defense.

I mean, can IT really say anything about defense to another player, though? lol Neto has been burning him all night already.

so far i have not been impressed by celtics' defense, especially down low. maybe its matchup problems, but i would think they need to cover jazz forwards better down low.  :P

Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Could be, could be lol.... He's looked much fatter to me in previous games, through the NBA League Pass feed. Guess I'll have to wait for the next game to really compare.

Now if we could get him to look taller.
