i searched through his stats and i dont see anything that he does that would warrent being invited to camp. obviously something he does must have impressed the celtics, but it wasnt based upon his  time at xavier scoring, rebounding, or anything.

well, he did shoot almost 38% from 3 point land his final year.

i guess they wanted a practice body.

Agree.

My money is on Tacko Fall getting the 15th roster spot.

True.

Since he's playing for the Celtics, shouldn't he be Caesar Gates?

Don't doubt yourself!  Your initial instinct was correct:  They saw something in this guy.  No reason to just pick a random guy.

another wing.

perfect, we were getting low on sg/sfs after trading none of them and drafting 3.


Kemba/Edwards/Waters/Wannamaker
Brown/Marcus/Langford/Green
Tatum/Hayward/Semi
G.Williams
Kanter/Porier/RWilliams/Theis


Something seem offbalance here to anyone else?

I think that Semi and Grant Williams (who are both 6'7", 240), belong together in the Swing slot.

I agree, I have Semi at SF, but grant I think is an undersized PF, I dont think he has the handles etc to be a full time swing.

Doesn't hurt to bring in hard working camp bodies to create competition for the end of roster guys.

Kaiser doesn't standout with anything but he's active big body who can "kinda" stretch the floor.

I think if Tac0 can't beat him out it's a sign he's too big of a project and I won't be disappointed.
