I guess 36 is available, that'd be 3 and 6.

I am exited about his attitude too. He will love it in Boston.

At the same time, Young stated at his presser he knows nothing about the Celtics. Not a great start.

Makes no sense to me, who cares what Young did or didn't say at a press conference? Not everyone is a Celtics fan.

Amen. I like what he said more b/c he was being honest. He didn't go to the whole "history and championships" line that everyone else does. I mean, he probably will at some point but come on, let's try to say something other than that common and coached response.

Now just to figure out what number to give him!

#20 is available

I think how our young players handle the media in Boston is crucial.  We have a habit of eating our own especially when they are young and have superior natural gifts.  Kessel, Seguin, Ellsbury, and Rondo just to name a few got shredded by the media and fans early and often.

Meh. Work hard, play the game the right way, and keep your trap shut. You'll never have a problem with the Boston media, just ask Patrice Bergeron.

What's his handle?

You have to have the media perceive that you are a hard worker.  Phil Kessel kept his mouth shut and put in goals and because it seemed so effortless people claimed he didn't care or make effort to improve. 

Boston loves grinders...my point is simple that if you come across saying you share the same values and then back it up you'll get the fans behind you.

Kessel, much like Seguin, didn't want to play defense with the rest of the team. This fact was pretty well established.

He may not know much about the Celtics, but at least he didn't look like Zach Lavine when he got drafted!
