When Kelly Olynyk drives to the basket and I hit Slo-Mo

It looks like he's doing that mannequin challenge (solo of course)

I am not exactly sure what your point is but since he has returned to the lineup there seems to be some life. He's making plays and some shots. I forgot what he added to our team since it has been so long since he's played.

Agree with Hodgy. You can see how much we missed Kelly. Including on D. He has great BB IQ.

Yes. Hope he stays healthy and team signs him to a fair extension after this season

Horford and Crowder come back this Friday.
Thank God.

What impressed me last night was KO's movement without the ball.  That surprised me.

[walker834]

 I think KO's one weakness is actually his lack of lift in the lane that Tommy always talks about where he brings the ball down and doesnt  really elevate over people.  He needs a better floater or something.  Not much of a post player either.  This is one area guys like Porzingis and Okafor are better than him.  POrzingis can obviously block shots too but KO did a good job m atching him everywhere else. 

He's pretty [dang] good driving to the basket actually and quick up faking from the top and driving.

its when he gets in the lane he doesnt really have the athleticism. He used to drive Tommy nuts because he wouldnt just shoot it, he tries to up fake and eh.  He's a poor mans dirk that way. 

I really think KO is a poor man's dirk that way too.  He matches Porzingis and other great post players everywhere else.

I was watching him last night going again Porzingis and standing next to him and build wise and body wise he doesnt give up a whole lot. He's also just as good a shooter and on catches driving or driving himself.  He's also jsu as good a passer.

Athleticism not so much.  He isn't going to block shots.  He also doesnt have those floaters and score with ease in the post like a guy like Okafor although he has moves down there.

I wonder what KO's market value is. Would other teams want to trade an asset or two for him?

[Celtics4ever]

Porzingas can jump much better than KO but KO is the smarter player.

[walker834]

In the same respect KO is like Scal if Scal were better lol.  I just wish KO would show up every night.   Play him big minutes.

My favorite part of moving on from Jared Sullinger was that it finally solidified Kelly's spot in the rotation. No more looking over his shoulder, no more wondering if he's going to get taken out for Sullinger when it feels like we need more rebounding or inside presence on the floor.

IMO Kelly has earned his spot and the team was flowing last night -albeit against the lowly Knicks- with him as an offensive focal point. The passing, the quick and reliable release on his 3 ball, even the slow mo drives that look like Tom Brady squeezing out a first down. I'm an Olynyk fan and can't wait to see how he finally see how it looks when finally lines up next to Al Horford.

I want to seem him in the post, I watch him shoot jump hooks and 1 leg fadeaways in the warmups and then he just stands around the 3 line in games

Not quite sure why you want to see him shooting jump hooks. He's bad at those and he shoots those 3-pointers better than just about any other 7-footer in the league.
