Even though he is more offensively skilled than Lee,it looks like there is not much hope in him by DA and Stevens.

#Celtics president Danny Ainge: will pick up Jared Sullinger option, will not for MarShon Brooks.

#Celtics Danny Ainge noted team maintains MarShon Brooks' Bird Rights, but declining rookie option can't be considered great sign for him.

Glad to hear it, no reason to carry him another year.

Well, no reason to guarantee him another year.  Based on what he has shown so far, he is more valuable as an expiring contract.  However, he can still show something this year, and the C's can always try to resign him.

I wouldn't mind seeing him join the Lakers or the Heat.

Yeah that's true, I'm not optimistic given what I've seen of his game.

With Wallace and Sully for Gasol?

Rondo/Bradley/Green/KO/Gasol nice, big lineup.

Yeah glad as well.  Hasn't changed my opinion of him so far.  Not an NBA player.
