Good thing is we’re going 10 deep max in playoffs so we won’t be seeing this 2nd unit.

Still there are a few guys on this roster who shouldn’t be in the league

The only good thing about this game is that it doesn't count.

"late first round pick"

Yeah Edwards looks shook out there. This isn't his last opportunity but this is worth keeping an eye on. Edwards simply cannot impact the game if he's not hitting shots. It's more simple with him than anyone else.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

The 2nd Squad didn't look as taxed as the 1st Squad.

I think Tremont can and should break the rotation as that 3rd guard in the Shane Larkin role

Game sucked, but Tre Waters is so good. If he improves his 3 point shot he will be a very good player for us.

Hard to get a read from the 1st game, a scrimmage at that. Just happy we got some type of Cs basketball back. And hopefully they're able to see this season through to the Finals.

Well, even bad basketball's a lot better than no basketball. It was just a scrimmage.

Was really looking forward to seeing Romeo. Would’ve looked a lot better with him out there then Green and Semi

At least with this break in the NBA Waters will be able to play in the playoffs and Wannabe and Edwards will play even less than expected.

Hard to watch at times. He's a great athlete but I don't see how he really fits into the system. Tunnel vision on offense.


Not really a absketball player is he? Same for Semi. Great bodies, great speed, athleticism and strength, but 0 basketball skill and IQ. The playerss that have basketball skills like Edwards, Waters and Grant are physicaly flawed. Just seems like Ainge can't find a player with a mix of both things. I guess Langford might be the one..

One scrimmage all. Haven't we all learned from the past? Oh man, the sky is falling. No it's not we have a rookie that scored some points. Oh I know, our late round draft pick didn't do crap his first year, yet he's gonna become an all-star this year. PERSPECTIVE PEOPLE.
