112288,
Thx. Do you know if the game will be on TV, NBATV?

I don't see Kris Joseph. Must not have any chance to stick. Of course, we already have a logjam at his position with experienced players.

Poor Kris Joseph, he's on a treadmill.

Three seven footers. I'd settle for one that could start. Oh well, hope springs eternal and Danny isn't done yet.

Hey Sam! DeShawn Sims is back! Remember him?

Also Tony Mitchell, whom I saw being pegged for us at 16 on one draft.

IT WILL BE ON NBA TV AS IT WAS LAST YEAR.

BobH,

I was just about to write the same thing to you when I saw your post. Celtics sure moved fast in getting Mitchell and Pressey. Could be a fun team to watch.

Besides, it will be an opportunity to talk about something we've actually witnessed rather than interminable conjecture of the summer. I much more enjoy posting about things that have happened, as you know I think prognostication is a waste. (It may be legitimate fun for many, but my life is loaded with fun without including predictions.)

It just occurred to me that perhaps the reason Kris Joseph is not on our summer league roster is because he still belongs to Brooklyn.

Trade cannot happen until July 10th.

He's been in the league for 2 years. How does he qualify for summer league?

His stats are underwhelming for a pg and that's an understatement.


According to #Celtics president Danny Ainge, former #Duke All-American Nolan Smith will be w/ C's on Orlando Summer League team. Twitter @scott_souza
