My prediction is that Maine wins the developmental league championship.
hey, a championship is a championship. i will take what we can get.  ;D

honestly, rozier, hunter, and mickey will rack up most of their minutes in the dleague, with cameos in the big show. which is a good thing. their current limits and inexperience will not get them enough minutes in boston to learn and develop, let alone contribute significantly.

let them practice together and kill it in the dleague for a year. they will be much, much better prepared to help out a year from now.

I missed the summer league so i cant really make a serious comment here.

still, my feeling is that rozier will take some minutes if only because we need a real ball handler in this roster- IT apart, our best ball handler is ET which is reason for concern.
i think you are correct in saying rozier has the best chance to get minutes in boston. but right now, barring any trades, he may be behind smart, IT, bradley, and turner for minutes. hard to get much playing time there.

but maybe a trade or 12 will solve that problem.  ;D

Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Sure, never forget who our GM is.

But just think about it, of the four players you mention at least two will be on court any given time. Actually I expect CBS at times to play three of these four together (two guards + ET).

I think Rozier can fit in the rotations provided he can compete at NBA level.

Zero minutes

Even without having guys like Rondo, Green, and Bass, to take their potential playing time away?  Surely Brad's favorite son ;) will play ;D.

I'd think they all go to Maine and alternate back but no major PT or impact.

Barring injuries, the rookie who plays the most is probably going to be the one with the best defense.
