They worked out Jaylen Brown today and said it went really good.  Also talked about the trip to see Bender. He said they had seen all his games already but got to see him in practice which was a lot more beneficial.  He seemed to like both quite a bit.

Ainge is no dummy.  Brown and Bender are the two guys I wanted too per usual.  I honestly am all over the right players every year way before anyone else.  I'm not jokng either.

Is that you Kanye?

This is one of those threads that deserve negative Tommy Points.

Could we call them delontes?
Pitino points?

And below is from a thread last year entitled "Biggest Draft Bust".  No one, including NBA GMs, are "all over the right players every year"     ;)


I just am not sure Turner, Stein or Porzingis are that good or that much of a jump over a guy like Javale Mcgee as a project and wait.   we could trade out of this draft as well.


I also was very high on Porzingis. Again people who want to look for negatives and put people down.  Typical.  You really should try to listen more.  I know what I mean when I say things.  That's really shows a lot though.  Very insecure.
you kind of brought it on yourself
I trust Danny Ainge

For a guy who wants to trade his pick, I can't believe Danny is praising the caliber and qualities of players coming in for workouts.

Any of these seem reasonable. I vote for pitino points just because it rolls off the tongue.

I second the idea of Pitino Points.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

I think he's hyping the value of the pick.

If he thinks it raises the value of the pick so we get more, why not?

Hey, maybe he's just a REALLY big fan of JaVale McGee
I'm bitter.
