this is big for Terry. When your boss sits by you and says "you are playing with swagger"..

Danny said all kinds of great things about Terry. That they knew he could play from training camp last year. That he's better than a 4th guard, that he could play a major role right now on any team in the league. That what's so great about him is that he's a two-way player--although he's not as good as AI on O yet and not as good as AB on D yet.

He said it was just hard, with the logjam at guard last year, and that it is hard for a rookie to play well with such inconsistent minutes. (Just look at the jump in stats and role that Danny himself made from his 1st to 2nd year in the league...) And the main difference in his game this summer was that he just had the chance to play freely.

Wow hold on JYoung says he's around 230-235 at 6'6" meanwhile Jae Crowder is listed at 235 lbs 6'6"... Either someone is lying or James Young and Jae Crowder are the same size

No way is young is close to crowders weight, but young looks much bigger though.
Well, Jae is probably artificially inflating his height because he wants to play a lot as a 4. Young is probably trying to inflate his weight because thats long been a criticism. If I had to guess Id say young is an inch or 2 taller and 10 pounds lighter.

Young measured out a half inch taller than JC did at the combine, and of course was very Young at the time. Crowder also weighed in at 241 at the time, compared to Young's 213. Every year Young claims to have really bulked up over the summer. He probably loses a fair amount of it during the season, but he was in Boston with BDoo all summer and this year really does look bigger.

he looked the same yr 1 to 2 now 2 to 3 it's noticeable. i think he worked extra hard because this season he can actually be off the team if he doesn't beat out others where he was pretty much guaranteed a spot on Cs or a traded team for his first 2. dude has to show and prove or be off the team and possibly out of the NBA in about 2-3 weeks from now.

Young an't making it.

Hunter at least has the IQ

Brown will destroy Young in any kind of one on one ......so will Green.......young might as well pack his bags

Nader is already better

I know this is a stupid question, but is this the start of training camp? Or just a media day?

Thanks Shak, I appreciate it, TP

For real, this summer feels as long as the 2012 Summer did when it looked like we reloaded nicely for a title run.

let's hope for a better end to the season and slip into a chip. ;D


was sad to lose kg and pp but the early returns are promising (picks spot is a win already, players from there are tbd with a possible fail in Young).

Someone help me out here. Is there any chance we have both Young and Hunter back? What are the other options?

As much as I dislike Young, I am praying that this happens. because that would mean that Young is finally showing the promise that he was meant to show, and that Hunter is on schedule with his development.

A guy can dream, can't he.

Let's hope their offseason is in reality much shorter next summer.

Haven't seen DJay at all and Bentil spoke in the marc and amanda interview. I saw some of the other camp fillers in the background but none spoke on anything I have seen.

wow Shaq thanks for the huge list!! TP to you!!

i had class exactly when media day started. i came back once class was over to see i had over 500 new tweets just about media day, so theres definitely quite a lot of stuff i probably missed. this is great, thanks!
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about
