Chance Pressey makes the Roster

[KG Living Legend]

 I mean I sure hope so. He's the closest thing to a real PG we have. Check these highlights of his 19 and 19 game and then his unreal hops for a 5'9" and a half kid shoes off.

I'd like to see Nolan Smith make it first. But, being a rebuilding team, there is space for both.

A less talented Nate Robinson with far superior decision making sounds very good.

I would be fine with Pressey as 3rd string PG. I would be angry if he were the main backup PG heading into next year though.

I too would prefer Nolan Smith over Pressey as 3rd string PG.

Will tell you more after summer league, right now I think it's 25%.  We worked him out twice.

I contacted a Blazer season ticket holder about Smith.....defense below average/weak

[Evantime34]

From watching his highlights he is the type of pass first pg I like, but him making the roster will depend on how we reorganize the roster. I think you will see a lot of 2 or 3-1 deals to consolidate the roster before the season starts. If they add other pgs through this trade then he's less likely to make the roster

I sort of agree with you, but the only thing that may make it ok to carry both of these guys is our versatility and depth at the 2.  Bradley will start but can also give backup minutes at the point.  Marshon Brooks, Jordan Crawford, Courtney Lee, Keith Bogans, that's a lot of minutes to spread around.  Not to mention, when Rondo is healthy he plays a lot of minutes.  Most likely the roster will change before opening day, but if the log jam at the 2 isn't cleared up, then I could totally see Pressey/Smith as the "backup" point guard.

After doing a little research I think his granger kid beats him out. He is a physical pg who but up numbers in the acb

[cltc5]

was impressed with pressey.  think he could be our backup but hes a bit small.  Ill have to check out granger.


Edit:  Yea, I'll take pressey.  The kid seriously has Rondo like vision.  Smith and granger appear to be about the same...more PG by default.

On a side note I think M Brooks will be a nice backup SG for us.

Sorry not that impressed.

Pressey is a better athlete and passer.   I think the SEC college basketball is way better than the ACB.

10 percent. However, if Danny enters full tank mode, 75 percent.

Phil, I'm aware of.

But who is this Chance Pressey, and why is he on the Celtics?

[WeMadeIt17]

I think Nolan Smith will make the roster over him. Nolan has played in NBA games, aside from that i feel like Stevens will like the Smith was a 4 year guy at Duke, and will like him on the roster.

Yeah, I'm aware of Phil Pressey.

Chance Pressey, though, is clearly someone else, what with the different first name and all.
