He looks like a complete player in that game. Both sides of the court, shooting and passing.

He looks like what everybody was saying he was gonna be during his high school days.

He definitely looked it when he played next to AB.  One thing that stuck out to me when they were fighting for time together before AB took over, was how small Moore made AB look.

I hope the entire rookie class sees more minutes.  Only 13 minutes yesterday for Melo, & 23 for Sullinger.  Perry Jones almost saw 29 minutes so I'd like for both to get at least that.

Don't know Joseph's total but it was only a tad bit more than Melo.

who knows? maybe doc and lue told him to play his game and try to dominate the ball. maybe they think he needs to be more aggressive and summer league is the place to experiment.

then again, maybe etwuan just isnt that good. :P

He was playing PG so I doubt this.  I think he knows he may be off the team so he's trying to gun his way onto it.

Unfortunately, the one thing they said EM needed to do in summer league is show that he can play PG.

For that, I think the experiment is already over.

I like Tyshawn Taylor. Very good size/athleticism. Plays defense. Can score and shoot.

Lot of talent there to work with. With strong coaching and player development, Taylor can be a good player in the NBA.

If you are asking me, we are making a mistake playing him a PG. EtWaun is a SG and I personally dont see him as a PG (Yet). But compared to his game yesterday, he has been really controlled today.

Sure Brooks looks good today. But i think that you have to give the credit to DeAndre Liggins. He really locked him down yesterday.
Right now Brooks is alot better than Johnson. Johnson tho could be a good productive bench player in some years, doesnt have it right now..

very nice game by Sullinger today. Not eyepopping , but good. Some clutch last shots.

I think he will learn against guys with length or who can block shots not to shoot through the middle from the post too much. When he spins to the outside, closing in to the basket he is very hard to contain , bc he can shield his shooting arm by using his wide body. I have only seen threes or posts moves. He needs to mix in that 15 foot jumper alot more.

Thank goodness we finally got some rebounding help. Kid can really rebound.

Melo looked a little lost today, but still effective on the defensive end by altering shots

Post by: danglertx on July 10, 2012, 07:20:32 PM
Joseph should be on an NBA team somewhere. 

Sullinger didn't shoot well but made some fantastic passes.  He ran the offense really well and picked up a lot of rebounds.

Gibson was fantastic and much of it against a proven NBA player in Marshon Brooks.  Right now I'd have to say I'd keep him over Moore if it came down to those two just because the Celts have no real point guard backup.

One thing I've noticed Melo does really well is outlet the ball of rebounds quickly.  I saw it once the first game then twice more this game.  If he rebounds more that could be valuable if the Celts try to get out and run more.

I only caught the second half on a hazy stream on my computer, but here are my impressions:

I don't care that he can't play yet, but with that body, athleticism, and mobility, how in the world did Fab Melo fall into our laps that late in the draft?  I'm kinda jacked up about the Brazilian.

People keep saying Sully's gotta lose some pounds, but I don't think he'll get rid of that trunk.  It's his secret weapon.

I'm not giving up, but I'm going to follow my grandmother's advice and not say anything at all about JaJuan Johnson.  

As far as Johnathan Gibson goes, I'd just like to tell E'Twaun that he better step it up if he wants to remain a Celtic.

Joseph should be on an NBA team somewhere. 

Sullinger didn't shoot well but made some fantastic passes.  He ran the offense really well and picked up a lot of rebounds.

Gibson was fantastic and much of it against a proven NBA player in Marshon Brooks.  Right now I'd have to say I'd keep him over Moore if it came down to those two just because the Celts have no real point guard backup.

One thing I've noticed Melo does really well is outlet the ball of rebounds quickly.  I saw it once the first game then twice more this game.  If he rebounds more that could be valuable if the Celts try to get out and run more.

I hope Joseph is on the Celtics' roster.

Moore had a line of 15/5/4/1/1... you people expect too much out of a guy picked at 51... Gibson had 17pts, 1 assist, and 1 steal, NOTHING else. Gibson came on to seal the game in the 4th (was absent before then) but Moore had the better all around game!! I said yesterday you guys will see what you want to and so will I but his line seems to support him not being "abysmal", "bust", nor "terrible"!

Jajuan calling is on defense. He can guard those rangy forwards really well. Joseph is a keeper. Gibson probably earned himself camp invitation somewhere.

I take it defense is what 3J needs to prove.

Granted I only have the box score, but I don't see why so many people are down on Moore this game. 15/5/4, with a steal and a block is great good production for 28 mins. IMO he has the best stat line of any Celtic this game. 2 TOs isn't bad either. Yeah, he only shot 5/12 or whatever, but that's not bad for a shooter. And he's +15 for the game...I just don't understand the negativity =\

That's not what I'm saying at all.  I'm just saying that I don't think he's a shoo in to make the roster.  He's going to have to work to make the team, and the young Gibson might be competition for that last or second to last roster spot.  

Danny's not sentimental when it comes to those kinds of decision.  The fact that Danny drafted him and the fact that keeping him around might be good for JaJuan's development might give E'twaun the edge, though.  

I think E'Twaun is a tough kid who knows how to play the game, and I think he would be a really good guard over in Europe.  I don't say that with any disrespect meant towards him.  

Who knows, though?  He might carve himself out a nice little NBA career as a slightly less athletic and much less crazy Delonte West.

The Gibson kid looked like a gamer this game.

Again , today I like Chris Joseph's NBA body, sturdy frame, seemsto have a confidence he can get his shot over most players  , smooth confident demenor , nice control of his body picking his way to the basket in traffic , simular to early college day Paul Pierce style player .   I think Chris has the ability to improve and be a player than can get his own shot in the NBA.  PLease don't trade him off. Like to see his game in another year.
GRADE  B- today.

Sully struggled with his jumper , but did alot of small things to aid his team.  The squad was definelty better anytime he was in the game . He has a define knack for being where the ball is comming off the board, or he is the luckest player I ever seen ;D.  You don't have to outjump everybody else , if you are like LArry Bird was and make quick decsions to place yourself in the right place for the rebound. Sully is king of the rebounding angles.  GRade C

Etwaun....  Nice solid game, B
Gibson nice scoring game. B   not NBA size player.

JJ ...better than yesterday, needs to play like crazy all the time and not turn it up now and then.  C+

Melo ...looked lost ., oh well. .... didn't seem to play much. D+

This is where I watched it.  The link was posted by Kay.B09 in the Thunder game thread.  It's a little spammy, but I was able to watch the second half of the game on it.  It streams NBA.TV live and free.

I can't vouch for its safety or legitimacy.

As far as Johnathan Gibson goes, I'd just like to tell E'Twaun that he better step it up if he wants to remain a Celtic.  

Moore had a line of 15/5/4/1/1... you people expect too much out of a guy picked at 51... Gibson had 17pts, 1 assist, and 1 steal, NOTHING else. Gibson came on to seal the game in the 4th (was absent before then) but Moore had the better all around game!! I said yesterday you guys will see what you want to and so will I but his line seems to support him not being "abysmal", "bust", nor "terrible"!

You act like Gibson was absent in the first half because he played poorly. He played 14 minutes total and Moore played 28 or if you're bad at math DOUBLE. The only reason I would take Gibson over him is because he's much faster and more athletic. He's also a great 3 point shooter. He averaged a higher percentage from 3 in college than Moore did (barely). Although they shoot the 3 about the same the speed and athleticism does it for me. He wont ever rebound as well as Moore but he has real NBA speed. He probably wont make this team though as he's basically a very raw version of Jason Terry.

My final argument is that he has a position and plays better defense in my opinion probably due to his speed. I'm not judging that based on one summer league game either, I used to watch him in college.

Also, I knew Joseph was going to be good but wow. He's not even getting plays or anything called for him. He just somehow manages to be at the right place at the right time. I do see a lot of Paul in him like most here not that he's anywhere near as skilled yet. I think Paul will take a liking to the kid and teach him a lot.

Melo is a project but I think training camp will help a lot. I like Christmas and his all around game. Sullinger is solid. JJJ is still not living up to my high expectations. Moore looks alright but he's forcing the issue too much probably cause his contract isn't guaranteed.

Kris Joseph was always a lock to make the team to me. I was surprised more people weren't excited about him after the draft but I guess a lot don't watch college ball(cant blame you I don't watch much either). I really just love his game. He's in rough shape to get time this year behind Paul and Green but I'm betting he'll find minutes here and there. Excited to see how these young guys improve.

Oh and one last thing I was very excited about Lasme cause I loved him in 2010. He looks pretty bad but he also hasn't been getting minutes. Guess we'll see but he should stay very far away from the sideline if he wants to stay in the game.

Yeah, Gibson definitely looked bad yesterday which made his play today even more surprising.  You gotta give it to him for bouncing back though.  He practically single-handidly won the game for the team today.

Kris Joseph will probably make the roster-he's very consistent. He has played against NBA ready players the entire past year for Syracuse. I hope he gets a shot because he could be a sleeper NBA starter.

Gibson, meh, threw up some questionable shots that went in- doesn't have great control for a PG and he's very short, but his speed is great. Don't think his firey shooting today can save him, if anyone's ever watched him play he's a chucker that struggles mightily against size.
If he keeps shooting like that though he'll get a camp invite.

Sullenger and Melo impressed me, Moore is trying to do too much and Johnson needs to relax- but his weakside defense is excellent, he alters so many shots at the rim it's amazing. His jumpshot from the elbow is very good, the spacing in the NBA will really help him stretch the floor with that J.

God that dunk attempt where he went AWOL mid air was scary! Got up straight away like a tough Celtic.

Big fan of Joseph's game and I like him physically.  I hope we bring him on.

Sully didn't have a strong scoring game but he rebounded well and was tenacious on the boards.  I also have to say he is a high quality passer.  He made one really nice pass to Joseph cutting across the lane.

Sully , needs a bit of tuning up his body. If he can lose fat and gain muscle , he can increase his jump and speed , quickness.  With his nice touch, and ball IQ,  he could improve still with living in the gym ( like Dwight Howard ) and ANdrew Bynum,also shed baby fat and muscled up , which has helped his game.  Like to see him reduce body fat and still be arounds Lebrons weight  250 -255.  Sir Charles was the round mound , basically short , but played smart with energy and back problems as well.

Kris Joseph is confident  ,  I notice Sully looking to set him up several times so Kris can get his own shot,  One GOOD player can always reconize WHO has got game. They already seem be on the same page. Very cool stuff.

I expect Kris to play well again today
