Danny IS the man!!!  The Celtics have 3 of the top 22 rookies in PER!!!!  Oly is #5, Fav. is 15th and Pressey is rapidly rising and up to #22 (not bad for an UNDRAFTED guy!!!).

If you take out the players that have not averaged at least 15 minutes per game, which I think is fair, then Oly is #3 (not bad for the 13th pick, huh??)!!!!

I really think that Pressey has shown enough to stick.  Just work on that outside shot son:-)))

Vitor Faverani with his 15th rank PER will surely lead us to Banner 18  ::)

Pressey's been over .300 from the 3 for each of the last four months: January through April.

Given the quality of this rookie class, the fact that we have those three rookies doesn't exactly fill me with a warm fuzzy feeling.

Look at it this way, is having the 22nd best rookie in the worst draft class in possibly 20 years really supposed to make people feel good? That player is still Phil Pressey, a 5'10" third string PG that can't shoot.

At least we didn't draft Bennett or Porter. :-\
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.
