Perry Jones 31min, 1-9, 3pts.
Ben McLemore 25 min 0-5, 0pts.
Thomas Robinson earned a whopping 2 minutes of playing time.

It's confusing why these guys pop up in half of the Celticsblog trade proposals.  Maybe after another season like they always have expectations will decrease.  I know one game doesn't mean anything; I just found it amusing that they all contributed nothing on the same night.

It's the same reason why people think that Sullinger becoming as good as Kevin Love is a reasonable outcome: the allure of potential.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

they could stink for the year but that won't stop them from wanting to trade for players they liked in college or the draft that Danny passed on or the fact some people think everyone in green stinks and should be traded for anyone else's 15th man because once that player comes to the C's they'll become an all-star

McLemore is still pretty young, at his age Bradley wasn't doing anything at all on offense.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Chandler Parsons 34 minutes 2-10, 5 points
DeMar DeRozen 35 minutes 4-16, 15 points

Demarcus Cousins and Klay Thompson were both 4 of 14.  Paul Milsap was 4 of 13.  Rudy Gay was 5 of 15.

I suppose those guys can't play either.

If you suppose that, you'd be wrong.

Perry Jones:

42 minutes - 10-17, 3-6 from 3pt, 9-11 FTs, 32 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block.

You're right, he can't play.
