    BOS seems to have plenty of stretch 4/5 type players though.

    They do seem well stocked at white big men.

    Boston isn't good, but I wouldn't sleep on Brad Stevens.

    haha. Olynk, who I knew would be average. Only got love on Portland message boards because of proximity. He looked horrible in draft workouts.

    He mostly only got love from one person.

    That being said, sample size. I don't expect him to be great, but let's not write him off already. I expect him to look like crap because, well, he's a rookie and he's surrounded by crap. So teams can focus on him (if needed).

    Led BOS in Points and Rebounds last night. But a little early to call him anything one way or another.

    At best he's a bench player.

    Stupid to say one way or another at this point imo, but I hope you bought a lotto ticket.

    I am curious to see how the Grizz do without Hollins. Supposively he was not the brains behind their defensive success. We will see how Joerger does instead. They are very close to starting out 0-3.
