I was thinking the same, he got like over 10 FTs in the 1st half alone, he's living on the FT line..

Yeah the guards suck. Olynyk has pleasantly surprised me.

Olynyk looks like he could be a really nice counter-part to Sully. D would be a problem, but a nice combo on offense.

Iverson looked good on the block and is active on the boards.

Like Olynyk's activity under the basket as well.

Agree that the rest of the C's summer team looks...underwhelming.
My name's Henry Connor.
Conner Henry was a Celtic.
Hence the pun.

I predict Sully volunteers to play the point come the 3rd quarter.

I do too. To me that kid is too smart not to adjust and find a way to do what he does. Not commanding the floor though as a PG right now though.

Guys just bouncing off Iverson when they run into him, hope he makes the roster. Surely he can be a third string 5 next year?

Olynyk has impressed me a lot, him & Sully could be a great fit.

Also like that Sully is there with the young guys.

It would be nice if they called one foul on Orlando.

Melo's done nothing to convince me that he's an NBA player, but I had a look at the guys drafted after him and I don't see much there...just tweener types like Draymond and Jae Crowder.
