    For the benefit of those who read only your excerpts and not the article...Connaughton didn't say that first paragraph. Ainge said that about Ainge's career.

    Batum was an immediate starter only because we had horrible SFs, Webster and Outlaw, and Webster was injured. His very ordinary SL performance didn't hide a rookie who was ready to start.

    Pat held his cards close to his chest on his desire to play both sports before the draft. I heard him say on Courtside that he wasn't going to dedicate himself to basketball until he ended up in Portland. Well that is fucking bullshit, but whatever. I doubt he'll ever play both sports at the same time, but I think it'd be cool if he did. I rooting for him.

    He shot a decent clip from 3, but that's basically all he did. Usually, guards that have legit NBA talent tear it up in the summer league.

    It is if the reason Connaughton isn't allowed to play baseball because he should be dedicating that time to basketball. What if Damian is successful and is gonna go on tour?

    Remember Jaryd Bayless was SL mvp and then he sucked on his rookie year?
