Fab Melo and Sullinger it is...

i love all these johnny come lately fans giving the draft a F before one game is played

Our biggest issues over the past couple years has been size and rebounding. I think that was properly addressed, even if Melo has work to do. Sullinger was a safe pick that afforded Danny the right to take on a project in Melo.

Dude - That is an awful draft.  Sullinger is a big baby clone who has a bad back.  He can't elevate and Fab reminds me of the PC center a decade ago called Kareem Shabazz.  Awful draft for Ainge!

His stats. Improved as the year went on.

Rebounding #'s not so exciting. Everything else promising, esp blocking

That's like saying the Hornets shouldn't be excited about drafting Anthony Davis. People have opinions on prospects, it's how this works.

sully has 100 times the b ball IQ of baby davis....and he has a better skill set than baby.

big baby clone

Wide and short...but loves to play in the post.

Glen Davis thinks he's Stoudemire with SF abilities*. This guy on the other hand plays big.

They needed a shooter and sorer and Jenkins was in their laps and thye passed on him.  Awful

He is also bigger, in much better shape, and a much better shooter.

Fab has equal lenght legs and good knees ......I mean what do you want ...   I'm pleased with Fab, he is a HUGE ol Boy and still filling out and learning the game.  He looks better NOW than Hibbert did comming out of school . So how about giving him a break .

Glen Davis thinks he's a slasher version of Stoudemire. This guy on the other hand plays big.

Sullinger cant elevate.  Why cant we get athletes to run with Rondo.  He plays big?  He can't jump.  Have youy seen his lift?  And now he has back issues.

Fab worst pick in the first round.  Immature, not intelligent, no basketball smarts, not athletic, and bad footwork.  He does one thing and one thing only.  I rather have Steamer than Melo

yes..i have seen Sully play..every game since his sophomore year in high school....he played out of position at osu...he will play the 4 and wear out some folks in the post

boston will have to address getting some athletics wings in FA...i think jeff green will be back...peaches back...they will prolly deal bass for someone....

He also has a bad back.

I'd be way more pumped about Melo's numbers if his rebounding was a little better. I'd call the draft an overwhelming success if his rebounding was stronger.
