As a UW alum, I watched a _lot_ of Chriss' games this season.
I would be excited to see Chriss in Celtic green and have hoped we might get him in the draft all along ... but with the 16th pick, not the #3 pick.
As much as I love his exhilarating upside, I can also unfortunately see his all too scary floor.
Everything in the DraftExpress' Strengths and Weaknesses videos are true. All season I'd go from cheering to groaning with him from moment to moment.
Some of that is definitely due to inexperience. He only got serious about basketball a few years ago.
But others seem to be moments of complete loss of focus.
I like Chriss a lot and if he works out, he could be a huge star. But taking him with the #3 pick frankly scares the crap out of me.
I can't even bring myself to link to the article, but Sherrod just posted a "5 picks who could contribute right away" list for the C's and Chriss was on it. Jaylen Brown also, but Chriss is the bigger offense.
It has to be satire. Right? Please tell me it's satire.
Jez Sherrod be'n Sherrod.

I have no idea how this guy has his job....
