    My favorite thing about watching this team the last few years is how bright the bench players shine. I consistently hear people talk about how we don't have all these "x factor" type bench players and I think so many teams think of the bench that way - a guy who can come in and score 15 quick points, a guy who will grab 10 rebounds etc etc... but they overlook how critical it is to find players who seamlessly fit in to the SYSTEM and compliment the core players. We don't need an x factor hot hand scorer (although pritchard is doing that just fine right now haha) because all the guys who come in allow the top guys to play their game. We still have floor spreading, defense, and shooting regardless of whose in or out. I'ts just great to watch.

    Joe M is a true strategist- uses the players for reasons - optimizes the game plan for the competition and to maximize vs the rules - too many coaches are complacent - he is a rare gem

      @@christiantrinidade9150Ime didn't trust his bench or develop young guys; he was a defense coach with tough love but relied on player talent when it came to offense. But playing drop coverage on Steph was stupid

      It's great to see Joe getting recognition. The people who are still critical (in my opinion) are simply just hard headed at this point and would rather be right than admit what is ultimately GREAT NEWS - Joe is an incredible coach and is the perfect type of crazy for this group of players

      He seemed to be ineffective against anyone tho. He was in his own head. Not trying to say Queta or Luke or even JB who was matched up for a bit didn't do great... But I don't think he looked at those guys and got scared they would stop him, I think his confidence was shot. He missed some shots you almost never see him miss and he missed them badly, and you could see his body language just kinda staring at the sky like "why me why now!?!" haha. Queta is a good defender, but I don't think he's at a point where a big who can score is scared of him

    Thanks John for the podcast..I totally agree with you about JT!! I understand he doesn’t want to miss games and I think he said he knows that people pay to see him play but I feel like he needs to sit out some games and rest. I hope he does sit for the Detroit game.

    When you win a title a couple of things happen that I think you need to adress after games like this.
    1. You are going to get the best effort from every single team in the league every night. Those teams want to beat the best regardless of how thier record looks or how competent they will be come playoff time.
    2. Winning back to back titles is tougher than anybody thinks. The heat took a miracle from ray allen to avoid the Spurs hoisting a trophy. The Warriors had CP3 not been injured would have taken that team to the last minute of that game 7. The nuggets looked like easy champion favorites till the end of last year when they flamed out. The bubble lakers had one of the worst post-championship seasons of the modern era. It’s hard to do!
    3. Boston has noticeable cracks in the foundation this year. Jrue holiday has slightly regressed as defender and he has been an overall problem offensively for the majority of the season. They lack true depth outside of PP and Al Horford. You don’t want Luke Kornet defending bigs for 30 minutes a game if an injury does occur.
    Winning is hard, enjoy the wins no matter how they come. The team is still locked in and a quarter of the way through the year in happy with a 17-4 record.

    Was very ugly especially early on. Tatum was 💩John, yes. But it was fun as hell watching Luke get 6 blocks and Pritchard just run shit. He’s got almost 80 pts in his last 3 games. Spoelstra even had some very kind words for Fast PP postgame. I like Drew. I honestly knew nothing about him until the last few weeks when I read up on him and he’s a very hard worker. That’s what I like about this team-from the Jays all the way down they work hard. Pritchard & Brown especially. Looks like we’ll finally get to see Smart go up against his former teammates on Saturday which should be fun. Thanks John! ☘️🔒

    Drew Peterson got more length and size than I anticipated, brings solid energy (similar to Walsh). Kornet Kontest with the block part & Precious P doing his thing. Tatum gotta be better but all around glad to stack the win. Thx John ☘︎🔒

    I’ve said for a while Luke has the same body as Brooke Lopez. He should study Brooke Lopez, because Lopez and holiday Was a great combo if they can create that or find that in Luke just the defensive part, it would be a blessing. Gotta love Luke kornet

    • @tylerriley2587
      @tylerriley2587 20 дней назад

      @mathewsousa3915 20 дней назад +1

      @ I know Luke used to shoot but doesn’t anymore but I think defensively come to replicating Lopez game. I would agree that Luke is a better law for sure but for some reason we don’t let Luke shoot threes anymore. I wonder if he’s just not in practice, I know his were declining season by season from beyond the three-point line until he stop shooting them completely

  • @mathewsousa3915
    @mathewsousa3915 21 день назад

    I’m curious if the fact that Tatum plays so many games is actually good for his health and keeps him this Iron Man or if it hurts long-term. You see a lot of load management and those guys seem to get hurt just as much as they did before they started to load manage if not more so I’m wondering if the more you play the healthier, your body is.
