Summer league

[gar]

Got to think we will be pretty hard to beat in Summer League for once. Know I should be focusing on the Free Agents; but will be fun to see what they can do. Melo and Sullinger are going to dominate down low. Throw in Joseph, JjJ, Bradley and Moore and we should be off to the races.

"As of this afternoon the Celtics were still negotiating with undrafted free agents to fill out the roster for their summer league team, which will play in leagues in Orlando and Las Vegas starting next weekend.

But several veteran free agents were added today, including power forward Othello Hunter, who played last season in China, and Jamar Smith, an NBADL veteran guard who played on a Celtics summer league team two years ago. Free agent guards Dionte Christmas and Jonathan Gibson have also signed on.

Sean Williams, the former Boston College center who was signed near the end of the season with the idea of playing for the Celtics this summer, will also be on the roster, though it’s unclear whether he will play in both Orlando and Las Vegas."

Bummer guess he was just never meant to play summer league.

Maybe they can bring in the Machado kid, but he may want a commitment.

Would love to get Hollis Thompson, the small forward from Georgetown. He can flat out shoot it.

Nice thought although the C's will have trouble getting people to sign on unless they have a shot at a roster spot so he would be competing with Joseph assuming we bring back Green.

Like to see Buford there. That would make the Pur-duo, two Orangemen and two Buckeyes.

Dionte Christmas can get NBA buckets....he's 6'6 with good athleticism.....The guy was a gunner in college, but when he was on, he looked like a superstar. I wouldn't be surprised if he makes this team and being around the guys we have might get him to stick.

Tony Mitchell could be a nice defensive stopper to have up our sleeve.
