I see he's 1-4 from the field at halftime (and read that his bucket was on a drive to the hoop).  Can't wait to see highlights of that shooting form.  Has anybody seen him today?  Just curious.

I love the wishful thinking in the announcers comments.

His shot looks fine although he tossed an airball and been blocked a half dozen times. He's rusty and slow his basket was uncontested easy layup (I'm 33% confident I would have made that layup)

He likes to spin while at full speed down the lane and a few times he spun into the defense instead of away.
ok fine

First game back, and he's already doing things on the court that Jayson Tatum hasn't accomplished in 73 games.

Looks good getting and finishing at the hoop. Obviously still rusty, but his ability to get to the rim was never in doubt. He'll probably end up an above average finisher.

To me he still looks hesitant to shoot any jumpers, though. I'd like to see him at the free throw line, which is where I think you'd see how far/if he progressed with his shot.

Crowd really into it.  Fultz playing okay.  You can clearly see the talent.  Not a lost cause by any stretch but I’m good with what we have.  Tatum much more stable personality.

I think Fultz can be a star in this league, but I still love Tatum more. Tatum has more superstar potential IMO than Fultz.

Fultz's ceiling is probably someone close to a Harden-like player but it'll be tough to reach that level.

Tatum's to me is Kevin Durant (yes I'm THAT confident in Tatum!)

Much better second half for him so far
2025 Historical Draft - Cleveland Cavaliers - 1st pick

Bigs - Shaquille O'Neal, Victor Wembanyama
Wings -  Lebron James
Guards - Luka Doncic

Um, I don’t think anyone would complain about either of those outcomes.

I'm just saying, I'm not going to be upset or call for Ainge's head even if Fultz becomes a legit star. Tatum looks like a legit stud himself, but we also got what likely is going to be a Top-10 pick next year from the trade.

Ehhhh, that jumper is still substantially different than the jumper we saw in college.

I wish Markelle Fultz the BEST - just not against BOS.

All I want him (and Joel and Ben and Co) to know is THIS



Let the rivalry begin anew.
