    Divac is a perfect Olynyk comparison.

    A flopping pussy? Sounds right.

    Really? Olynyk is much more agile, with better handles, and a better shooter, don't you think? :)

    I'm thinking from a basketball smarts and high post passing perspective.

    The more you discuss Olynyk the more I think you haven't seen him play much.

    Considering Ainge's comment and your take, I just flashed an image of a poor man's Bill Walton, hair cut and all. :)

    Seriously, if he is a good high-post passer, with his other skills, that could be a fun offense to play in.

    What Danny Ainge was really thinking: "We don't see Kelly as a go-to guy in the NBA...but he was the best white player available."

    The more you post in general, the more I think SlyPokerDog is a self-indulgent douche who can't ring his own bell enough, apparently.

    He looked decent. I said before the draft that I thought he would not be a bust.
    But unless he gets more physical inside he may be more like Bargnani

    Bargnani could never dream of shooting as efficiently as Olynyk does, rebound as well, or play defense as well.

    You are probably right, he looks to be better, but Kelly needs to play inside or his rebounding numbers won't reflect it.

    I watched him and he looked awesome! He had a McHale up and under move that was insane! I have no doubt he will be good!

    What does 7 rebounds in 26 minutes extrapolate out to in 36 minutes?

    It's about a rebound every 2.7 minutes. So I would say 10-11?

    set it up as a proportion:

    7 is to 26 as x is to 36. cross multiply to get 26*x = 7 * 36. x = 9.7
