Who do you think got it?

James Young for me, imo. He's more consistent in the preseason and shows some signs of development on both ends although he still have long way to go to be a solid rotational player.

Both are relatively equal on the offensive end. Defense gets you on the court and is a big deal to CBS, and Young has the advantage there, so I go with Young.

Young. He's younger, and both of the Trash Bros. are roughly equivalent right now. Go with the younger one with the more NBA ready body and hope he gets it.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier

The biggest thing (in my opinion) working against Young is contract.  Are the Celtics going to pick up the option of whichever of the two make the roster?  If they do, Young is scheduled to make $1.5 million more than Hunter next season.  While that's not a huge amount in the scheme of the salary cap, the Celtics will likely need every penny to have room for a max player next summer.

So change.

It doesn't work that way. GMs don't kill the team's reputation with player agents by retracting decisions and promises., especially Ainge.

LOL. Waiving a loser like Green will not "kill the team's reputation."
