20-man training camp roster is set

Marcus Smart/Dennis Schroder/Payton Pritchard
Josh Richardson/Romeo Langford
Jaylen Brown/Aaron Nesmith/Sam Hauser (Two-Way)
Jayson Tatum/Juancho Hernangomez/Grant Williams
Robert Williams/Al Horford/Enes Kanter/Bruno Fernando

Competing for final 15-man roster spot: Jabari Parker, Luke Kornet, Theo Pinson, Juwan Morgan, Ryan Arcidiacono. There's also an open two-way spot but it's been said that Stevens doesn't plan on using it until later in the season.

As of now I'm predicting this team to be the 6th seed but it would not shock me if they were able to be a homecourt team. Really just depends on health and player progression, particularly of Tatum/Brown/Time Lord. Also would help a lot if we finally got competent bench play and Udoka actually instills a system on offense instead of nonstop isos.

Romeo Langford gamewinner just like we all predicted :troll:

JB & Tatum looked good, Schroder & Horford have good chemistry, I liked how active Juancho was. Time Lord had a weird game offensively, shot too many jumpers and had a couple missed dunks. Turnovers and defensive rotations were an issue, but it's also the 1st preseason game with a new coach
