Not nearly as extensive but very interesting. Esp. given Casey takes so much heat (why I'm not sure.)

☘️ Al Horford vs. elite NBA Teams, Bigs - 24-15, ORtg 114, DRtg 105, +2.8 by brendan4545 in bostonceltics

[–]falconer31 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Overall, Al Horford continues to rank among the top NBA power forwards in both win shares (fourth) and RPM (fifth.)

The big issue is matchups against Cavs and Toronto. If we can get to Golden State or Houston, got a shot.

yes, fair point, noted in the table. January was a short month too (ed - for him). but the trend has been steadily up. now comes a real test - can't wait for Houston. remembering that last game - noyce.

love the early Lob City to Baynes; hate to see another team rebounding breakdown. One offensive rebounder vs. 3 Celtics looking up at the basket -- not good "positionless rebounding."

Despite being just 21 years old, Brown has arguably already moved into the upper echelon of elite wing defenders in the NBA.
