    Collins has another tough physical match-up w/ Zizic today. Interested to see how he responds. Hopefully he's put in better positions to score and when he does get those 1v1 touches, he uses more skill/touch rather than strength to win those battles.

    Look for Boston to throw out some small-ball lineups too. Should give us more of a chance to see how Collins and Swanigan perform in space situations defensively than we saw vs. Utah.

    Idk, there's really not a true PG on the team. Closest thing is probably Guiterrez.

    which is why our bigs aren't running as smoothly as they normally would. I saw a couple of passes at Collins' knees in game 1.

    Tatum has probably impressed me more than any other player in the Summer League. His offensive skill set is incredibly polished for somebody so young.

    Hopefully more Jorge. He doesn't have much offense but is so much better at getting everyone else involved.

    Connaughton already 0-2 in two trips down the court while his man Jaylen Brown is 2-2 from 3-pt range. 6-0 Celtics.
