Well, based on this first half I'm glad we didn't trade the rumored 6 draft picks to move up and draft Winslow. Lol

I guess nobody can give a brief rundown to someone that doesn't have tv access  :(

All 4 picks look good
Celtics up by 10
Smart is playing
Holmes looks good

Miaimi:  decent guard paky
Winslow hurt

danny ainge like our picks and has no idea who david lee is

Like what the announcers and interviewer are saying about Lee (for what it's worth).  There seems to be a feeling that Lee still has it -- just got nudged out of minutes because of injury and emergence (and fit) of Draymond Green.

Perry Jones is here to give Young competition. Will be interesting who makes it.

I'm ready to move on from James Young.

I won't even feel bad if we flip him for just a 2nd rounder. That's how good RJ Hunter I think he could be. I don't care at this point. Send him away and give me Hunter and Holmes all day.
It's really a shame because he's only 19 and has time to come around, but there are so many good looking SL players on this roster.

Has James Young played at all today?

Dang. When Smart is hitting his shots, which seems like once every 5 or so games, he looks like a future all star. But games like this,  just seems like a terrible shooter, who doesnt know how to find better looks other then a three.

Hope he turns it around second half.

I can confirm that smart has made several three point shots during half time warm up.

I'm ready to move on from James Young.

I won't even feel bad if we flip him for just a 2nd rounder. That's how good RJ Hunter I think he could be. I don't care at this point. Send him away and give me Hunter and Holmes all day.

I'm leaning towards this, but then again James Young is only 19. I like to keep him til his rookie contract expires.

No I get that, but RJ Hunter shooting lights out is making him redundant at this point. He's got one year experience and a ton of D - League play and so far, Hunter is looking like the better player.

Also, Holmes is playing for a contract, and he's looking like he deserves it. He's a guy who can contribute right away based on his position. I'd rather have that spot over Young at this point. I know we should not give up on 19 year olds with potential, but what we expect from Young, we may get from Hunter, and may get in less time. Give the spot to someone who can contribute.

i always thought the guy to get was Stanley Johnson. Still unsure how Winslow will be.

Interesting to see a lot of players coming to see their rookies, I don't recall seeing that in the past.

He's actually looked like a basketball player multiple times tonight!
