Nice. If he can pick up some of Quis' minutes I would be psyched. Looks like Pavlovich is gone. If we get green back would finally have some atheltic wings behind PP.

Quis's minutes? he probably took Quis's roster spot.

Am I right in saying that he's a(from my google search):

Ahtletic, great scorer. Questionable defender thanks to cuse.

Possibly a late first/early second in less-deep drafts?

I don't know anything about him but when we picked him the analyst were saying he is.

He would have been top 20 if he declared for the draft last year.

Joseph was the leading scorer at Syracuse this year. He always seemed to come up with about 15 quiet points a night, it just came easy to him. He was by far the most consistent player on the #1 ranked Cuse team. He's a great defender, can knock down open 3's, and he can run with Rondo.

Joseph is a more athletic James Posey - I think he'll start for the C's when PP retires.

Resuscitating this thread.

More appreciation for this pick!

Nobody seems to be talking about him. A second rounder who could very well start!? I'm sold!

I was under the impression it was the opposite. According to the front page his offense is his weak point and he has potential to be a really good defender.

either way....FINALLY...some young athleticism.

He's been playing zone though. That's what I'm most worried about with him and Fab Melo. Hopefully it alllll pans out!

Here's a video summary of Kris Joseph from Bleacherreport.

Not the best video summary out there imo. They called him undersized at 6'7 and then went on to compare him to Rashard Lewis saying he's a big tall guy who can shoot the three.

However I do like the comparisons. 3 and D and a little more is right.

But, again, the Syra-Curse is scaring me bunches. But he does have the tools says draftexpress.

MAybe he can be a "CHEAP" Brandon Bass fill in.

  We need guys that are rebound hounds.

Why I like Rondo and Pietrus and Bradley . They are always willing to stick their nose in amoung the trees to steal a rebound from the big guys.

Rebound is alot to do with Heart and desire and concentration.  (LArry Bird)  

Joeeph "might" work out good for a running mate with Green and JJJ and Moore.   If JJJ and Moore respond this year could be a decent bench. Throw in Wilcox and they might hold their own as the bench.  Add in Melo in 2 years and its a pretty good start to a revamped Celtics.

Remember our rookies were thrown into the fire with little or no practice or attention for the staff.  Now they will have a summer to finish growing , and they know what is expected , can mature and be ready at the beginning of the season. I expect them to really show tons of improvement.  

I'm happy and excited for the upcomming year, At least these guys win or lose will be fun to watch improve and mature.  

I was so tortured watching old, slow defunct JO play last year, it was painful.

I like new blood into the C's
