Boston Celtics Roll Call

[Crotchrocker]

Gerald Wallace should be starting. For one, he is probably the most talented guy on the team next to Rondo. Two, he's healthy. Three, we want to showcase his talent and build up his trade value. Four, he's on my fantasy team! (I took a shot?) ;^)> Word.

 

[LogicMan]

I just want Wallace to shine. Please promote him Brad!

Sounds like Wallace and Green are gonna start at the 2 and 3.

 

[#1BostonFan]

So we the start the season 0-1 and it's gonna be a long season. Let the tanking begin!

 

[BobGnarly]

Come on Wiggins!

Come on Wiggins!

It's possible.

Picture Rondo, Green, and Wiggins in a starting line up.
I do think once Rondo get's back, if he's not traded, will win too many games to get Wiggins.

 

[#1BostonFan]

Well two games in and I'm not too upset.

Happy with Vitor Faverani and think he could be a good player in this league and legit starting 5.

No signs of Brooks getting into the rotation, who I'm high on.

Nothing else really stands out. Green has been decent and probably averages 18+ PPG this season. I hope Sully can show more.

 

[#1BostonFan]

Olynyk hasn't showed much, Bass has been pretty good.

 

[LogicMan]

Without a PG on the floor last night I am fairly happy with the progress. AB is not a PG. Hence, the 4th quarter got squirrley.

Most importantly is that the Brazilian Rain Forest looks legit. This was a good find Danny.

Without a solid PG, this will continue. We will see soon enough if Brooks/Pressey can fill that role for the next 6 weeks or so.

Bass looks great. If this continues, expect him gone by January. There are alot of teams that would love Bass.

 

[Crotchrocker]

Vito fave balled out of control vs Milwaukee

 

[BobGnarly]

Hopefully he can keep up his domination on the boards

 

[LogicMan]

So far what I see is AB is not the same w/o the big 3. Kelly O and Sully have some chemistry developing, and Crawford, Wallace and Bass are playing "ok".

They miss having a ball handler. Pressey is who may provide value in that space

The Brazilian Rainforest in fogged in right now. He needs to get serious about his play.

If you're talking about Faverani you need to learn a bit about post play. He's good at that even as inexperienced as he is.

 

[LogicMan]

Heck I am not talking at all about his offense. he has to learn that a game is won on both ends of the court.

 

[Crotchrocker]

What do you guys think about Brad Stevens so far? Or is it far too early to have noticed any distinguishing characteristics? Word.

 

[LogicMan]

Too early for me Rock. But I will say this, he is not afraid to pull a player when they are playing bad, and he is not afraid to call a spade a spade.

we need more time

 

[LAKERSUSCBAM]

we need more time

you'll have a better gauge when Rondo gets back what type of team you'll have by seasons' end.

 

[LogicMan]

Thats certainly true BAM, especially for Kelly O, Sully and the Brazilian Rain Forest

But for certain players, like Wallace, Crawford, humphries, this is their time to shine.

Good news is Jeff Green wants the ball. I never thought I would see that day......

 

[Brahmsian]

Sorry I misinterpreted you.

Faverani is unusual for a rookie in being better defensively than offensively, and I've long favored
players who are like that.

Good offensive rookies are over-rated more often than not, IMO. They are all too likely to
think defense is only for benchies.

Definitely too early to say.
