one of his best game last year. Found this excellent clip on youtube. Who else likes the way he battles out there?

at times during this game for some reason he looks like paul pierce out there, the way he dribbles to the basket and draws foul after foul. 

I can envision him doing this for the celts late in the game especially when we will need buckets.

For those that thinks he sucks on defense, watch 5:40 , where there is like less than 10 seconds left in the game. Great effort

Who is he going to guard? Could he stick Fab Melo?

That's a legitimate question. Guarantee there's a possibility Fab could dominate him, offensively, in practice.

I beg to differ. First fab can't dribble. Second he doesn't have alot of post moves and can only hit wide open 15 ft jump shots. Olynyk would be able to defend him without alot of fuss

I can see a scrimmage  situation where Olynyk and a guard like Brooks, or Crawford are forced to defend pick and rolls plays time and time again against starters
