    Jalen's overall shooting% is below 40%. Only Landale and Boban are worse.

    We should just play the bench for fun! Landale, Boban, Nate Williams, Holiday and Tate as starting five!

    Pre nWo, babyface Hogan's rogue gallery. :eek:

    Format is that of a Comic books cover.

    Honkey Tonk man, King Kong Bundy, Earthquake, Virgil, the Great Muta, Curt Henning (Mr. Perfect). Lot of old school faces.

    He averages 17 pts a game. He only scored 20-30 pts when he takes a pig amount of shots, because he has the worst FG% on the team. We don't desperately need him taking and missing shots others could make. Time to start Cam.

    Well, we were just another band out of Boston
    On the road to try to make ends meet
    Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
    And we practiced right on out in the street
    GO ROCKETS!!!

    The toll of too many games in a shorter interval and older bodies.

    Fred resting from his 6 Fouls.

    If it was just Jabari out. I can see Jeff subbing in at the 4, but yea with 3 of 5 starters out, this could end very badly.

    Then the question, who does Dillon guard: Brown or Tatum. Either Tate or Dillon would give up lot of height.

    Celtics got their first home loss from Nuggets, both Jokic and Jamal had 30+ pts games. Sengun has to get his points without Fred. Dillon would have to step up offensively. And Jalen... well... has to score. Celtics probably see us as their slump buster game.

    If Amen replaces Jabari we won't be hurting. However, I see Ime starting Tate . Tate's weakness is that he's a black hole on off3nse that ends with bad results. Amen has those similar defensive athleticism traits that Tari offers.
