That was a good read! TP

I look forward to seeing him play with smart in the summer league.

Good read.

I'd like to see what he looks like, though. This thing made me very excited. He's still 19, so he's got a long way to go, but being physically mature is a start.

If Young could give quality minutes at SF, it would really help the C's with the clutter at SG that now presents itself.
I like the sound of this article. Go James!

Great news. I really hope we don't bury him on the bench. I really like him.

Hopefully Young can get some spot minutes off the bench. Celtics could desperately use his 3 point shooting.

This gonna be like the muscle Kelly added to his frame last summer?

It all sounds great. Now we just have to see it on the court.

Imagine, though, he's still only 19. He's younger than RJ Hunter by nearly two years. And he really did play tear the D-League apart while he was down there. I'm optimistic.
