Jackson won't workout in Boston unless the Celtics commit that 1. They're keeping the pick 2. He's their guy at No. 3.

This is laughable to me. Pass.

I don't get it. So he wants us to commit to him, before he works out with us?

So you going to play mind games with Danny, of all people to do so with nonethless, but your potential boss? Yeah, okay. He can go to the Lakers. Not interested in players like that...

True. The lack of a workout won't dissuade the Celtics. But the lack of medical info is more problematic for Boston.

And Ainge still won't hesitate to pick him if he wants to.

This is a disagreement between his agent and Celtics. Don't pin it on Jackson. He's the most competitive/fearless player in the draft

I don't like this guy's attitude.

Ha.

Give the kid credit for self-confidence.  He sees himself as the next big star in this league.

Confidence is fine and actually important, but give me the guy with outward humility who is always trying to improve his craft (like Avery Bradley).

It's all agent driven, but yeah, it makes no sense. "I won't agree to an evaluation unless you take me no matter what that evaluation says".

That's ridiculous. It's time to put a # on how many teams you are REQUIRED to meet. Like, If a top 5 team wants a look, you have to go at least once (even if you hold a private workout with all 5 teams there)! Then you have to give access to another set # outside the top 5. These guys aren't FA until they aren't taken in the draft!
It takes me 3hrs to get to Miami and 1hr to get to Orlando... but I *SPIT* on their NBA teams! "Bless God and bless the (Celts)"-Lady GaGa (she said gays but she really meant Celts)

He's the same agent who played extreme hardball with the Rockets and screwed over Motiejunas.

Keeping the pick is one thing. Committing to him before you get a chance to meet him is stupid. No medical info is scary though I don't like that at all! Or his agent for that matter!

see this why Tatum appeals to CBS...

But ....unless ai sadly mistaken .....in the NBA .....you gotta take on the Greens, Wades , Cousins , Howards , Smiths , Rondos. .....at some point ......you need them to win .

CBS puton the big boy pants .....your in the NBA now .....not exactly the boys choir group.
