10/25: Celtics@Knicks

Even DARKO misses sometimes I guess....
He actually sometimes looks half decent, but in the preseason and this game, not so much.
Kornet looked bad all preseason also. For some reason he looks much slower. And he never looked fast
Advanced stat systems often struggle with backup bigs- who tend to shoot at a high % and have decent rebounding numbers but not actually be that good outside of backup context.
the 2nd quarter has been way too much wing 1 on 1 and hasn’t put the ball in Porzingis’ hands enough. He’s not on the level of Jokic but I like when we use him as a hub and let the talent work off him. It doesn’t matter how good your teammates are if Brown and Tatum are going to continue to play my turn your turn offense
Maybe this makes me reactionary or dumb but I really don’t think you should be experimenting in game 1 on national tv.
It’s not a huge deal but I think that’s more for your random Tuesday night against the Pistons
what does national TV have a try ng to do with it? I'd be pissed if my coach was incorporating the media for any aspect of in game strategy
Ah, lazy no-box out at buzzer ...
Would like to see the ball zipping around more on offense; it got a bit sticky in the second quarter. But Porzingis -- incredible. And Holiday's defense is truly something to watch. I think he's a level above Smart.

Tatum and Porzingis were awesome. Holiday was solid. White in foul trouble. It happens. Bench looked shitty and that’s probably how it’s gonna be if they aren’t hitting threes.
However my reactionary hot take after the first half of the season: I’m worried about Jaylen “head down” Brown’s fit on this team. He went ISO almost every time he got the ball.

It’s game 1 and a bigger deal. That’s why I put the National tv thing in.
I’m not pissed regardless, I think it’s stupid but ultimately not a big deal.
Game got sluggish after the hot start. Not enough ball movement on the offensive end. Porzingis locking down the interior really keys the defense.
I didnt like the flow of the offense for most of the half. Too stagnant. Zinga was good as was the D
I would imagine it has to burn some Knicks' fans asses that Porzingis started out as a highly touted Knick draft pick but never produced for them.
In the way Jokic makes pretty good guys play like stars, Tatum and Jrue have Zinger looking like a top guy.
I love the optimism but I don’t think those two things are even remotely similar.
Jokic is an all time passer and incredibly unique
Bob Myers, former PBO of GS. I actually like him, pregame he wasn't having a lot of Steven A's BS
Anyone else get a 4patriots prepper commercial on ESPN there? Then it was followed by Flex Seal. That’s the level of advertising they’re getting on opening night?
Those are your local ads, not ESPN, I got ads for Boston area companies
edit National ESPN ads
That whole possession leading to the Tatum and One,, was set up because White pushed that ball up the court, and the Knicks were out of position quickly.
not wanting to double Tatum to leave Zinger open…pick your poison brother. Hahaha
this will be funny if these guys stay healthy
