Anfernee Simons Shines but the Celtics Have a Big Problem
Is Anfernee Simons about to become Boston’s breakout star? We break down the Celtics’ 138 to 107 blowout win over a depleted Cavaliers squad and discuss what stood out most from Simons’ TD Garden debut, Jaylen Brown’s playmaking, and Payton Pritchard’s strong start. Then we preview Boston’s final preseason matchup against the Raptors, including what lineups we still want to see and which players have the most to prove. In part three and four, we react to the first half of the NBA’s annual GM Survey, from the best offseason moves to which rule needs to be changed, and debate where the Celtics stack up in the eyes of league execs.
All that and more on the latest episode of Hold My Banner with Adam Kaufman and Ountae Campbell.

sometimes Blazer fans ignore bad trades by their GM.
… trading Portland's #1 scorer ?? … geesh
Simons with that “wait till the games matter” vibe. Super quick release with his shot.
Remember that everyone on the basketball court in the NBA is a professional basketball player and are trying to make a NBA team for the upcoming season. You are probably not going to see a lot of players who going to be with these teams and they might be in the gleague. In or somewhere else either in Europe or with the Harlem Globetrotters. But all of them are professionals and definitely deserve to be respected
Possible good chemistry Lineups in my opinion to give them different strengths in execution pending the competition! (see below)
