Tatum getting to the cup with little resistance is a good sign.

Trae Young has to be in the running for worst defender in the NBA

It’s a good sign that Tatum has made one completely boneheaded pass, missed a dunk, and missed a wide open corner 3 but is still 4-7.
They can’t keep any Celtics away from the rim

Murray is a good defensive guard, but Brown and Tatum are just too big and strong for that to be a good matchup for him. Having him and Trae out at the same time leads to a lot of juicy match ups for the Js.

Keep the dumb turnovers to a minimum, they are scoring at will inside and getting good looks outside.

Stay back and gang rebound. Maybe in later series it will be worth the risk to get out and run for easy baskets, but they can get whatever they want in the halfcourt anyway. One of the few dangers against Atlanta is them getting second chance points.

I think this confirms the hypothesis many of us had that Robert Williams was a Christmas present under the tree that we couldn't unwrap until the playoffs. WOW.
