Pushed aside, demoted, doubted, dismissed. Maybe that's just what Jared Sullinger needed to motivate him. It seems ridiculous to think about his performance last night as a "comeback" when we are talking about the first game of the year. But that's just how it felt like to me.
Brad Stevens made no secret of the fact that he preferred a 4 man big rotation and Jared was the odd man out. But he also made sure we knew that on any given game he would switch things up if the situation called for it.
