    Wish Leonard had that IQ, because athletically Leonard > Olynyk

    Should be fun to watch.

    Olynyk is more athletic than Meyers?

    Rondo didn't do shit.

    More like the Laker effect.

    Olynyk has had a couple games like that this year. Glimpses. Huge for a rookie big.

    He can play as much as some hate to admit it.

    I really couldn't care less about him.... or anyone on that team for that matter. The only time I even look at his box score is when this thread gets bumped :lol:

    He's a Kelly. The luck of the Irish.

    Has any writer noticed that the names Kelly and Celtics derive from the ethnic group Celts, pronounced Kelts?

    This Celtic player acquisition was a predestined union. You like my wording, Mick?

    I got "union" into it. Prk is an old Viking name. He discovered Riker's Island.

    He would be a nice fit on our team.

    Don't think Ainge or Stevens would give him up though. Bummer.

    Boston lost to Utah... Olynk's performance means nothing.

    We desperately need more threads about role players on shitty lottery teams.

    If you don't see the promise in a 7 footer that does what he does, then frankly you don't really know much about basketball. The main reason I continue to bring up this thread is how much flack I got about how Olynyk was going to be such a scrub.

    His advanced numbers still aren't great, but he's had an uphill climb after his brutal early season start. I'd say in the past 2 months he's been about an 18 PER guy.

    I'd rather have Sullinger.
