Orlando listened to me.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

The 53rd pick is important. Celtics need to bring someone into camp to push Malik Fitts on his sideline celebrations. There is always someone ready to take your spot if you stop working.

The thing that's really pissing me off to this point is that Boston could have tried to trade up and/or buy a pick for example when the lakers pick at 35 there will be some good talent there I hate this sitting around and not trying to get talent..

Fire Danny!
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Dont think Green would be in the green room if they were trading the pick.

Yoan Makoundou is probably gonna be there at 53. He's better than a bunch of guys who have already been picked.

peyton watson being picked over EJ LIddell is a head scratcher for sure.

All the 6'8" to 6'10" big wings/forwards are getting picked. I was hoping someone like Chandler would go first round. Teams are finally figuring out that undersized PGs and SGs won't win you anything.
