2/10 O/U on # of usual starters: 1.5

[McBride11]

I don't think NBA Jam even had a heat level for White tonite

 

[joe dokes]

I think we can all agree that if there was a player's kid on another team announcers talked about to the extent they talk about Deuce, it would drive game threads insane.

I don't know. We're all family-friendly. For instance I think most posters here enjoyed all the references to, say, Archie Manning, right?

 

[Imbricus]

Rob looks really sluggish, like he's on 'ludes or something.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Out of all the skills Rob Williams possesses nothing impresses me more than his passing. (Turnovers tonight aside lol)

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Headband Mode.

 

[ifmanis5]

White: 9/11, 7/9 from 3, 26 pts, 3 asts, 2 blks, +17

 

[benhogan]

He's getting paid, but this has to be depressing for Gordon Hayward.

GTA T-minus-2hrs

 

[Euclis20]

Rob looks really sluggish, like he's on 'ludes or something.

I don't know if it's injury or rust, but he doesn't look like he came to play (and that's before the announcer called it out when he threw the pass directly to Hayward).

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Rob looks really sluggish, like he's on 'ludes or something.

I think he's clearly saving his bullets and not going for showstopper plays in meaningless winter '23 games. Good call imo.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

They should stop the game for 20 minutes to commemorate the record.

 

[ifmanis5]

Tatum for 33333! What a half. And the record!

 

[joe dokes]

Could be. But he needs to find a speed between "summer league" and "Game 7."

 

[Nator]

They don't play much defense, do they?

 

[Imbricus]

I don't know if it's injury or rust

Rust. Please. Please. Please. Please.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Could be. But he needs to find a speed between "summer league" and "Game 7."

To be fair this one isn’t far beyond summer league.

 

[Tudor Fever]

They should stop the game for 20 minutes to commemorate the record.

Nah, the last time that happened, the record-holder’s team lost.

Kudos to JT, that’s an amazing accomplishment.

 

[joe dokes]

They can't shoot like that every night.but when they do, they can really go less than all out on defense

 

[Imbricus]

Actually, on Time Lord, one knock on him coming out of college (scouting reports) was that his effort was sometimes inconsistent. I remember noticing that with him early on, though not to the degree we appear to be witnessing it tonight.

 

[benhogan]

Guess KD couldn't make the Suns game tonight, not that it mattered

 

[sonofgodcf]

. Scal and Max are built for blowouts. I hope this game keeps playing to their strength.

Max is so much more enjoyable as a Gorman replacement than Grande (who I think is insufferable). We're not going to hear great calls, but they enjoy the game and don't fill every minute with incessant chatter.

 

[benhogan]

more pick-n-pops above the break for Muscala, please

 

[mikeot]

Marry me, Malika ….you make halftime a must-watch.

 

[jmcc5400]

I don't know if it's injury or rust, but he doesn't look like he came to play (and that's before the announcer called it out when he threw the pass directly to Hayward).

I think the Williams uncalled goaltend threw him for a loop

 

[djbayko]

They should stop the game for 20 minutes to commemorate the record.

First, love the joke.

Second, what was the record? I'm watching while working and missed it. Can't be most 3's in a half. Maybe most for the C's?

 

[Tudor Fever]

Based on a quick look, DWhite’s career high is 29 points. He’s on pace for 52 tonight.

 

[Tudor Fever]

1,000 career threes

 

[benhogan]

variance

 

[The Mort Report]

good, get more greedy Rob

 

[Just a bit outside]

Not sluggish there

 

[joe dokes]

Looks like someone may have whispered in Rob's ear.

 

[128]

Would be nice for Tatum to be well-rested for the Sunday matinee with Memphis.

 

[ifmanis5]

The iron was kind.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Dirty roll

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

15 more threes this half?

 

[Just a bit outside]

Hornets are disgraceful on defense. Just pathetic.

 

[Van Everyman]

Looks like someone may have whispered in Rob's ear.

(“Wake up!”)

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Hornets are disgraceful on defense. Just pathetic.

Like Scal said, I don’t think they care. Just playing out the string.

 

[Tudor Fever]

White tied his career high for points on that fortuitous and fortunate bounce

 

[bigq]

The Celtics are mercilessly beating Charlotte senseless and I love every minute of it.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Celts have taken 37 3's, 18 2's

 

[joe dokes]

Looks like Luke got a hazing haircut.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Damn!

 

[The Mort Report]

Tatum is a bad man

 

[128]

Tatum absolutely abusing his fellow Dookie.

 

[JCizzle]

Wow. This is like going against a freshman team.

 

[Reverend]

Would be nice for Tatum to be well-rested for the Sunday matinee with Memphis.

Ooh. Thanks for the tip; didn’t realize an early game and that’s perfect.

 

[128]

Like Scal said, I don’t think they care. Just playing out the string.

Only smart thing they've done in a while is to deal Plumlee and force-feed Mark Williams minutes.

 

[128]

Ooh. Thanks for the tip; didn’t realize an early game and that’s perfect.

2 p.m. on ABC.

 

[Reverend]

2 p.m. on ABC.

Yup! But I’m out west and easily could have missed it. The NBA is so savvy about putting games where people want them when “other stuff” is happening.

 

[mikeot]

Works for me: when it comes to TL, preservation of his health until it matters is paramount.
