No way this guy is an NBA player. Everybody owns him. Defense terrible, indecisive offense, just a player you don't want on your team and you get sick of watching him.

Been preaching this since he was drafted. If Ainge wanted a 7'0" guard he should have drafted Antetekoumpo

Olynyk gets strip all the time he drives within 10 ft bec he shows the ball often. He is also useless if his threes are not goin in.

Ah, the overreaction threads have started popping up.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

I believe this is the time to use the 'SMH' acronym...

Cool it - he had an off-game last game and unfortunately didn't show up for the Warriors game. I don't know if you watched him before that, but he was quite effective. I agree he could use more consistency, but let's wait until we have a healthy team before we determine that KO shouldn't even be in the league.

Like it or not, 7-footers who can shoot, pass, and make the proper defensive rotations are a commodity in this league. He likely will never be a star, but his dynamic game - however awkward he may seem - is actually useful when you look at the all-important analytics.

Ah, really? Yeah, Ainge totally should have drafted Giannis - I've never before heard that on CB.

Great! Just what we needed. Another over reaction based upon a single bad game.

Keep'em coming CB!  ::)

Feel like a broken record but how'd he do in this game?

Bad again tonite. He and Zeller are useless inside. As soft as they come.

They get no 2nd shots. They live and die with IT and Bradley right now.

Bradley having to guard KD tonite. No depth.

Horford sitting on the bench tonite with Crowder. Horford could be out the whole year with his headache. What a headache that is.

Olynyk's 3 point shooting percentage is way down this year....27% vs 36% last year.
I wonder if that shoulder is still bothering him.

Based on nothing else but my eyes, I agree. He's not the worst.... But he won't be missed when the Celtics forego signing him again. Have fun in Toronto with Sully!
The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.

Zeller, JJ, KO and AJ and all bench players don't expect good performances every night. They are going to have it some nights but most nights they will be tough to watch.

Jeez, KO is a role player who's got his own set of limitations. Put him next to a guy like Deandre Jordan and he'd look terrific. Put him next to a guy like Zeller and he'd look like a scrub.
