Sac continues to win against NO tonight. Bad news and good news. NO is slipping down down down and Ainge is grinning. Not so smily about Sac they have a good young team i am not surprised. Buddy Hield is one of the reasons why Sac is playing well this season. Ainge should have drafted Buddy Hield instead of Jaylen Brown. And he could have drafted your other all time favorite (can't miss, NBA ready...) Markelle Fultz too.

This sure wasn't the same hornets team that it was last time. Their announcers are complaining that they just aren't getting the calls like they were earlier in the year.

I like Brad making Jaylen Brown the backup to Jayson Tatum.
There was no issue regarding minutes as only 7 players got the bulk of the minutes.
If Brown is fine being Tatum's backup then there's no need to trade Jaylen Brown.

Any truth to the rumor that Tatum was benched?
I don't see any highlight vids of him @ the C's twitter page ...
Fake news! Tatum played well and Jaylen Brown was his backup. Seems that Hayward lost out to Tatum for now. Brown was replaced in the starting lineup with Smart. Morris also breathing down Tatum's neck ... Word is there was some disgust again tonight as Tatum flip-flops back & forth into Kobe form and Brad "rested" him for an extended period to let him think about it.
Brown playing defense again ... how bout Tatum?

Every time Tatum went out of the game, he was replaced by Brown. That happened in the 1st and 3rd qtr. So Jaylen was Tatum's backup in this game. Getting 4 fouls in 7 minutes is not playing good defense. It's true that there are times that Tatum takes shots that remind you of Kobe. But Tatum is only in his 2nd year and he's only 20 years old. Tatum has a long way to go before he becomes a tier 1 superstar like Kobe. But he's getting there. The Celts also didn't draft Tatum for defense. In 32 games played by the Celts this season, Tatum started in all 32 of them. Tatum's the only Celtic player to start in all the 32 games this season. There's no doubt that Jayson Tatum is a starter.

There's no need to trade Jaylen Brown if he accepts and thrives in the role of being Tatum's backup.
It's true that Jaylen Brown's ceiling is high. But if he can't reach that ceiling then there's nothing wrong if Jaylen ends up the next Tony Allen for this Celts team.

I was just thinking how much it hurts not having Baynes to stay in front of embiid. If he goes off I'm not going to panic.

Williams might block a few if Ainge plays him but he can't make up for about 30 lbs. No way i believe Williams weighs 240 and Embiid only 250 as listed on the rosters. Takin bets today i got Phila and ill give you guys 4 pts .

First the family thing.
