Tatum = 15pts, 6 rebs, 2asts, 1stl. -- Nearing Halftime.

Nothing is given."

Oh boy. Tatum! I know that this is just the SL, but we may have hit the jackpot. He's so polished offensively.

Zizic has skill there's no doubt. But he needs to work on conditioning and playing to NBA speed. Still very young. Needs a season or two to be a contributor it appears.

Guys, don't worry about Zizic. He is visibly out of shape, but he is fighting for every rebound, boxing out and contesting every shot he can.

He'll be ready come October. He'll get minutes.

Celtics need to swing the ball around more

Who is that commentator who sounds a mix of Jeff Van Gundy and Bill Simmons?

Wasn't he banged up at the end of the Euro season? Or am I just making that up?

I know that it has been said a couple of times but when it's all said and done, Danny would look like a genius or really really stupid for trading down.

Not worried. And once he gets used to our system, he'll be ready to go.

The dude doesn't jump shoot... I've never seen Brad play a guy who won't shoot a jumper.
