So do tell what's he's being stubborn on? What rotation options has he had besides yanked the bench guy who's playing like ****? Precious? I'm here for it... run him out there vs. Tatum. Should be great for us

Some don’t understand that this roster is not yet complete.

Main adjustment, I feel, Thibs has to address is Hart.
Celtics will put KP on him so that he can help in the paint against Brunson.
May be time to have either Precious or Mitch with KAT.

if they put KP on Hart then we must find KAT in the post, or spread let him blow by KP. This notion that Josh has our offense at some kind of 4 on 5 is nuts. Lots of internet folks think Celtics dont have to guard him. Im great with that game plan. That's what got him all the triple/doubles

I take everything back. Hart is just different and what’s needed on any team.
He is a dawg! Been more aggressive this series. Think he learned from last year.
Huge game yesterday. Will keep my money on him.

Josh is the guy who steps up when the team is struggling and puts us in position for Brunson to get us over the hump. You're absolutely right, he gives us whatever we need at the time. For someone the opposing team wants to drop off of, he's shooting 44% from 3 in the playoffs!

They could be in flow doing positives on defender help or 1 & 1 defense. 🤔 Likewise let these players has role in positions to knock down jumpers. Thence gives confidence to hot hand and spread it out. Naturally everything goes thru Rick Brunson however there need to be flow of GOOD shots,and even as some are missed the shots has to be easy shots.

That's why Thibs can't adjust to flow of game by offensive guys capable of sharing the rock/ball.
😎🏀. Thus Tom.T is good coach X's and O's but very stubborn and it will be his downfall!!!🤨

Let's just be fortunate - that may be our best option. Bank on fortunate.
