Waters was all defensive at his size.Remember how Shane Larkin could change the energy level by being a full court pest.Both Edwards and Waters have been always playing against bigs with no fear.
Romeo played most of his freshman year with a torn ligament on his strong hand on a weak team facing strong opponents while being super elite in the paint finishing.
Williams the strongest has had to play smart down in the trenches getting position against bigs.

Marcus,Jaylen,Jason and Semi will push these kids and if need be pull them along.
Waters will be like Shane Larkin a frustrating full court pest and complete change of pace
I have noticed that players trying to take advantage of a smaller guard often throw of their teams rhythm..Edwards can score from anywhere.And is strong with 6-6 wingspan.
 .
For me its Williams that may have to adjust the most. He gets up quick and has tested by P3 as super elite in the strength areas and at Combine with lane agility which surprised a lot of people.

Romeo is fluid, love his change of gears,He has no height or wingspan issues and finishes in the paint at a super elite level.So he takes the hits and played most of the season with a torn ligament in his strong hand that would hinder shooting and dribbling.
He is in the best position, surrounded hard working young players and coaching.His potential will be a work in progress. He is only a year from high school and remember Jaylen talking about "man strength"
There is nowhere in the league that has the talented youth along with playoff experience like Boston.

Celtics over the Lakers in 7 for #18. Why the hell not? We lose a talented jerk and a quasi-replaceable big. We lose some leadership. The young guys improve upon their own leadership and the team reverts to grit and humility. We could be better this season. This could be Brad's best team with a few acquisitions.
