[Tanktastic]

I don't think there's been a game this season where I've been more impressed with Lauri. He had a horrific shooting night, even though most of the shots, especially around the rim, were good shots and pretty much his normal selection.

If ever, this was the game to either completely pack it in or be content with setting screens and just floating around the perimeter. But he kept battling and only upped his effort. Also, no frustration, no "woe is me" at any point. Just kept working, working really hard.

Sexton was magnificent. Keyonte was great and flashy on the offensive side, but the defense was at time pretty bad. And at the end he was clearly feeling the minutes, but of course the game didn't provide for him to sit even for a minute.

Collins... yeah. Not good.

Did Lauri get fouled on that last 3pt attempt

Nah, just a high-five up top after the shot, no other contact. "Incidental" as they tend to say.

Pretty surprised the rotations are still pretty tight. I wonder when Will starts to give out more minutes to Brice/Luka/Kira.

He won’t. I do think op jr plays instead of THT at some point. Unless there’s an injury those guys won’t play. Especially Kira. I think they’d bring Preston up to get a look first.

I think they will look at Kira eventually. They seem to be legitimately curious as to what he can show. I think Preston was just a G-League signing for the sake of the G-League team.

Ainge was high on both OPJ and Kira when he was with the Celts. I wonder if coach gets a suggestion that Ryan would sure like to see the new kids play some.

Preston is basically averaging a triple double in the G on 50/40/90… he’s worth a look imo. Kira was salary filler.

Well I mean they can send Kira down to the G and call Preston up at anytime. Kira was playing in the G for NOLA and his very short stint with the Raptors.

I just don’t think with the slew of guards we have already that they care very much about Kira. He wouldn’t have been included if he didn’t have to be. I’m pretty sure they had to split it up into two separate deals to make it work too. Leaving him off would have been more ideal but they needed to make the money work.

Well, at least they fought at the end.
