The Celtics are off to a leagues best 13-3 start and it is headlined by their 3 stars. The 2 way play between this trio is definitely up top as the leagues best. And it looks as Porzingis has had no trouble fitting beside the two J’s.

Have they already cemented themselves as the NBA’s scariest big 3? Or is there another trio that you’re more comfortable rolling with?

    Honestly, it’s not that far off.

    Tatum is clearly the best player, but Ant is 2nd being miles above 3rd.

    Brown and KAT are both flawed, but excellent when on their game (which KAT has been), and Rudy’s defense can be as impactful as Tingus’s offense.

    Celtics are probably a better team overall, but the top end talent is comparable between the two.

        The only change was KAT. Still early, but he’s performing over my expectations.

          All you needed to see was Towns to over perform your expectations for 14 games to convince you they are nearly as good as Tatum, Brown and Porzingis?

            Well, I’m pretty low on Brown, in general, and pretty mild over Porzingus. I get your point about sample size and confirmation bias, though.

            So, at this point in time, it’s fair to say, but obviously more games are going to be required to make a better judgment.

              So 14 regular season games is enough to change your mind on Towns, but not Porzingis? And you are down on Brown who has only been the second or third best player on four teams that have gotten to the conference finals or better?
