 Jaylen Brown may have a ways to go but he's the most exciting player we've had since Len Bias who never actually played here.

 Between Blake Griffin, Jaylen Brown, Thomas, Rozier and even possibly Yabu, we have fast quick athletic guys who can really jump and finish with Thunder Dunks. (Not Thomas with Dunks)

 I for one would be thrilled to see the Celtics with two big strong power Dunkers to hammer home dunks and alley oops, throw in Rozier for some world class speed and that's fun to watch.

You forgot NADER and his 40" Vertical.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

Yeah, Rozier had what I consider to be easily the best dunk for us in Summer League (off a steal in the first game). I want Brown to be as 'vertical' as people say, but so far Nader may actually jump higher - did you see his crazy dunk from college?

Nice to finally have some athleticism on our team.

 Agreed, and not just any guys with hops. Big. 6'8" type athlete's.

I don't appreciate using the term 'showtime' to describe the Celtics.  That word is a Laker term.

This thing could also be about Westbrook. He is also in LA right now. Maybe they're trying to sell them both.

Never, we are not the Lakers.   

You should have to do a walk of shame like Cersei on game of thrones throughout Boston, and lose all your tommy points.   JK

Ugh...don't associate us with that yellow/gold or whatever stupid color that team wears.

I always said when I left the Celtics, I could not go to heaven, because that would
 be a step down. I am pure 100 percent Celtic. I think if you slashed my wrists, my
 blood would’ve been green.  -  Bill "Greatest of All Time" Russell

Blake gets us to the championship, Westbrook confuses everything we've accomplished to this point, IMO.

Showtime, hey, I like the sound of that. Besides, considering the Celtics as showtime just takes the spotlight off of LA n gives them a black eye, I'm down for it. Let's steal their airtime n shine
