Perhaps Thibs just lets him do whatever he wants and he needs to be guided more strictly
You don’t think he played the same way on the Pistons? My first instinct would be to say he hasn’t adjusted to the team or the lights of the garden are too bright but he’s played here before and made shots here before so it can’t be that. He’s just in an insane shooting slump and at this rate he may not survive it. If he can’t hit 3s at 40% he’s a major negative. A lot of the shots are wide open too. He should reduce his attempts and try to focus on shot selection but even then the ball is just not going in for him

Nah, we're winning every series on the road against teams that have been healthier than us, don't bow down!
The entire Conference has bad odds vs the Celtics. I’m not normally an optimist but there’s a very real “lightning in a bottle” scenario unfolding here where Randle, OG and Mitch actually dominate the Playoffs because they’re not beat to sh*t by a full season under Maniac.
That is, if your boy Mitch can get his conditioning right. The other two are generic/workout freaks and will be back to form quickly.

Did I miss something? Is it really only a swollen elbow or something more severe??

He had some loose bone fragments removed, probably similar to scoping out a knee and cleaning up the debris. It was said to be a successful surgery so he should be fine.

And telling them to give him a list of players:
"Give me a list of 83 players that are paid more than Josh Hart that are better than Josh Hart"
Just like, as a guy who knows a tiny bit about video editing, can I just say this dude sucks at making videos. Like, what even is this, he has a landscape video inside a vertical screen inside another landscape. You can't see sh*t. And then not only is the audio for the clips he's showing out of sync with the video (literally basic editing), his audio is pre-recorded. Mentality, cause I know you're reading this, buddy, if you're recording audio of yourself, you can script it. Please do that next time, write it out beforehand and listen to it. Do multiple takes, cut around parts that don't sound right, you can do that when making a video
I will say to be positive though, this is art:

OG is a great defensive player. But check his injury history. It's bizarre. He takes twice as long to return from injuries compared to other players with the same ailments. And it happens EVERY year like clockwork. I started thinking that he might enjoy the downtime. Either that or he is the unluckiest player in the league.
I never seen an injury history like his. It's not even indicative if a guy with a recurring problem in a knee or something like that. It's his wrist, then it's his ankle, then it's his other ankle, then it's his other wrist, then it's his ribs, then it's his shoulder, then it's his other shoulder, then it's his finger, then it's his toe, then it's his left hand....etc etc.
And for every one of these injuries....he's out close to double the time that is first assumed.
