Scouting and player evaluation is definitely not an exact science... I mean, the player who should have won three straight MVPs went second round, so go figure.

Celtics got a Steal with this Kid.
And 4 more 2nd Rounders.

Sorry but JD is horrible. I was really pulling for this kid for 2 years. He does have some positive attributes. But he is certainly not an NBA player in my opinion.

JD may have a future in the NBA but it’s years off at best. That’s coming from someone who really liked him as a high upside prospect

Bodon not getting playing time is really a head scratcher

Man, they didn't show the Walsh steal and dunk. Must have happened too fast.

So this vincent kidd is about 6'9 with long arms and appears to have a natural pure looking shot..

, I repeat what I asked before, how does he not even get in for a few minutes in the first five games??

I liked the Kid, too. -- But, his spot could go to someone somewhat more promising.
He already has his Two-Way year, here. -- Maybe, go to another Team?

It's bad today. They didn't even bother learning the names.

Technically it's been a year and a week or two.....

Brad doesn't want to lose him in the JB trade.

I am wondering if he will stand out more. Because of his passing with the main rotation players.

Also the cutting, which wasn't going to be highlighted in summer league play, especially since he was probably one of the guys the defense keyed on.

Think Marquis Daniels might be a good comp for him. I lived when the Celtics signed him, though it didn't really work out.
