Obliterate Orlando.

Jaylen questionable with the groin pull, Holiday probable [ankle].

Weird schedule, 1 game road trip, 230 start, day after Thanksgiving. Do they travel in the morning so guys can have Thanksgiving with their family?

Coming off a big game midweek, weird travel time/schedule, and playing against a team that has been hot recently with an enormous amount of confidence = potentially a long afternoon. Hope I’m wrong though. Man, I wish I could have gone today.

Orlando is a handful at to deal with at full strength (I think people are a bit too dismissive of them as a competitive playoff team - I think they can definitely win a series and push a great team to the max number of games). Without Holiday its even tougher for the Cs.

I hope Tatum is feeling good.

If the line is Boston by 5, as I saw earlier, then I think I'd take Orlando to beat the spread. Still, rooting for the C's, go guys!

New PBP guy is so young, he doesn't even know the Charlie Day meme is a spoof of a Beautiful Mind.

Phew. What a slopfest. Tatum at least redeemed his lazy handoff pass with a nice bullet to Porzingis for an easy two.

He's definitely not at his peak but he would still be a great fit as he can fill a lot of roles. Its academic anyway as he isn't available or affordable for them.
Ingles would be a good cheerleader on this team but I don't see where he could get any minutes.

This brings up a bigger point... it's actually hard to figure out any upgrades to a non-injured roster. PP/Kornet are probably fine as 8th/9th men if everyone is healthy.

If you buy Hauser as a legit rotation player (I do) Brad is basically just looking for insurance.

Yeah that Boston "weak bench will need upgrading" narrative is starting to get old.

Porzingis is 15/53 from 3 for the month of November and 3/22 cherry picking his last 4 games. I don’t think he will remain this cold although he’s been consistently short. Hope it’s not injury related

We can agree to disagree on Ingles - this board is always way too fast to call players toast and I have been guilty myself too - but I agree with your view about the lack of obvious moves.

I am a big Hauser fan btw.

Cs bench going to play a role here with White is out. Lets see what they have.

D.White left forearm contusion in case anyone missed it. Probable to return.
