any word on if Brad is gonna find him minutes?
Will Heinsohn call it mularkey if he doesn't?
It would be a crime punishable by a lifetime NBA ban if Brad doesn't play Edwards over Wannamaker

Was Wanamaker in the rotation prior to this season?

No, and Edwards is absolutely in the Celtics rotation already. Celtics fans are excited to see him and Smart as a duo off the bench

How far back was this? Not a loaded question but I’m curious if it was before summer league or the draft as I was admittedly oblivious to this kid.

He was saying it draft night, IIRC. Dude was the founder of the Carsen is a steal bandwagon.

this was my point when talking to a co-worker about Trae. The kid can be a sniper if he just changed his selection and take the open looks provided by the offense. If Nash is the comp then that should be the emulation. Nash in today's climate would be ridiculous.
And going all the way back to his high school and USA days, this is the main reason (defense as well) that I have never been fully on the Trae Young train. Last year he had 1 month where he shot at least 35% from 3 (shot very well with 43%), but that's it just one month. Its not from a lack of shooting ability, its from horrible shot selection.
I do think he's a good enough shooter (especially from the line) that he is never going to be horrific from an efficiency stand point. But with his turnovers, shot selection and defense, ya that stuff prevents me from buying into him going to be a star one day.
Teams have not adjusted to Trae. That is a pipe dream a lot of eastern conference fans are hoping for. The Hawks have 6 returning players from the start of last seasons roster: Young, Collins, Huerter, Len, Bembry, and Carter. Trae has played more minutes with any of three rookies than two of his remaining starters in Len and Huerter. The sky is not falling and Trae Young will be fine.
You cherry picked .350 and that excluded four other months of .340, .347, .337, .337 to go along with the .437. His 2018/19 season total assist to turnover ratio was better than 2 to 1 ( 653 assist to 308 turnovers ). For a high usage rookie and primary ball handler that is outstanding. I don't know what to say to this Trae is a bust kind of talk other than you probably tasted crow last season and you will be again this season. Trae will be an All Star and star for the Hawks for many years to come. Book it Danno.
This is why it's almost impossible to talk young players with another team's fans. He never mentioned anything remotely close to him being a bust, he just said he didn't think he would be star. You can't make even the smallest criticism without there being overreactions. Anyone with even one eye can see Young has a horrible shot selection, he'll take three steps over halfcourt than launch a second into the shot clock. 34% from three isn't good either, Young just wasn't efficient as a rookie. Those are just two small criticisms, every young player has at least two.

And you have some really obnoxious draft “experts” over there that ruin the experience for everyone with their condescending view of anyone who disagrees with their expert opinion. Fischella and EvanZ are unreadable

Absolutely, the draft board is awesome. I was just speaking for what i read on the GB draft night.
