    One of the biggest surprises sofar is how much they specifically play through each other. JB was not the person I expected to run the most 2 man game with Porzingis

      I was hoping for it since Brown is so good off of drag screens/handoffs, but I was never expecting him to be this good passing. Porzingis being able to do basically anything (pop, roll, pass) and being a huge target makes it so easy for him.

      Really hope he can use it as a stepping stone to become a better playmaker overall. Made some nice passes against the raptors that old JB probably turns over.

        Yeah, KP’s catch radius and versatility is a nice safety net for Jaylen. Hopefully it’ll lead into him developing more difficult reads at full game speed— he’s got the ability to make some really nice passes, it’s just about consistently seeing the opening

    Brad Stevens really traded Marcus Smart for Al Horford 2.0 then immediately got Alternate Costume Marcus Smart back in the same offseason
