I hope Jaylen is still growing. He looks about 4 inches shorter than LBJ..

This rebound was also ridiculous and a huge play:

Nah he just need a taller hair. Like Shumpert's.

TP to the last person to post JB highlights from this game.

What was his nicest play? Any match-ups with Lucifer/Lebron?

Just put Jaylen out there.  One man wrecking crew.  I think we are better with Crowder just because of his experience right now and physical defense but jaylen could put up 20 and 5 right now even as a rookie if he was starting easy.

Rozier is kind of the same thing.  He isn't as talented as jaylen but he is at his best when he jsut does his thing.  It's when he tries to play within the system and goes into kedrick brown mode is the problem.  Rozier every time they put him out there since a rookie he does things and can put up numbers.

Rozier needs the ball in his hands even moreso than jaylen though.  jaylen can rebound and get putbacks where Rozier really needs the ball and to just go.  Jaylen does too though.

I really think Jaylen may be starting by the end of the year regardless. He's better off the bench because of his energy right now but a healthy jaylen is better than a hurt Crowder.  It's a much closer call than that too.   Jaylen is hte more talented player and crowder does get banged up and loses something as the season goes. Crowder may actually be better served off the bench to keep him healthy although jaylen has more energy that way right now.

I don't know how Crowder would be off the bench.  He's more a starter as we bring these guys along and probably trade bait ultimately.

Maybe start Brown alongside Crowder to put Amir in our bench to stabilize our 2nd team's Interior D? Could also be a way that we have one of Horford/Amir on the court all the time.

I missed the game unfortunately. I've read the recaps and watched the highlights, but apparently the commentary was bad? Reggie especially?
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Yup, they made Lue play their starters right up to about 30 seconds to go.  LeBron needed to kick it into overdrive to lead them to the win.  Celtics have put out notice that they're not pushovers, even when short-handed.
