Pendergraph is a kid that has grown on me during his college career. I'd rather sign him than Mikki Moore.

I agree.  Too many projects on this roster already.  We don't need more unless we do a 2 for 1 and also choose not to bring back Pruitt and Powe. 

We saw what happened this year when we had too many questions and not enough statements.  We don't need to waste a roster spot on someone who won't contribute and likely won't be anything more than a role player 5 years from now if they're even in the league.

The two guys I would consider taking a shot at and think they can help right away are :

- Jermaine Taylor. He could developp as a nice scorer of the bench. He reminds me a little of Thornton. He is an athletic wingman with very good shooting skills. I really like this player and some specialist think he could even get in the 1rst Round. I heard Danny was going to work him out and see. By the way his statement "we have to see if there is a guy worth trading up" I definitely think it's for him.

- Second dude is Jeff Adrien. He is a defensive athletic monster. Man this man nows how to play with energy. He also has a nice basketball IQ. His size  makes im a great Lebron Defender IMO even if i think he might have to work on his speed before really getting a defensive shot at lebron.


So these two player are worth a try in my opinion !

I agree. Adrien is such a beast and has a nice mid-range jumper.  Plus he is a local guy and would have a good support group in Boston.

Quote from: Danny Ainge
“Right now we’re taking a big look at the draft to see what might be there for us. We’re checking to see if there are any players we might want to trade up for.” . . .

Stay away from the draft, Danny.  We don't need any more projects that aren't going to see playing time.

Run, do not walk, away from this draft.
