Celtics Stuff Live: Kelly Dwyer

Kelly Dwyer of the Yahoo Sports Blog, "Ball Don't Lie" will be joining us from 9-10pm tonight!  Here is his assessment of the Celtics' draft this last Thursday night:

Grade: A

With that in place, I think Johnson can be a terrific player in the right system, so much so that he was my favorite target for my hometown Chicago Bulls as they picked late in Round 1. And Moore, though his game is full of holes and he is a wing-trapped in a point guard's body, could be a rotation-level talent. Even knowing Johnson's rebounding issues and understanding his small frame, Boston could turn him into a contributor that lasts for years. Not bad, for the end of the first and second rounds. Boilermaker-hoy!

(I don't think that's what they say, here. I'm not at all certain what they say, here.)

Don't trust him

the guy obviously knows nothing about Purdue basketball.

A futile crusade to prevent mass ignorance

I would have been more impressed with the A

If it hadn’t been one of 5 consecutive A’s doled out

Not a knowledgeable source...
I watch as much Purdue basketball as I do Duke or College of Charleston basketball (that is to say, no basketball)

So the guy doesn’t watch any college b-ball, yet want to claim to know how the NBA draft went… Don’t you need CBB knowledge to know if someone’s draft went well?? There is only so much you can learn from tape and the combine/practices. Watching both of them grow over the past 4 years (every game!), I know that you got two kids who will work harder to improve than ANYONE ELSE ON THE COURT! So, don’t listen to this clown!

Boiler Up! Hammer Down!

He said "Boilermaker-hoy"...

If he had a clue, he might have said “Boiler up”.

Sigh ... Kelly ...

I posted an “A” grade elsewhere. I’d like to think I put forth at least a somewhat more compelling argument supporting the grade than this.

Dwyer gets paid for writing that article?

NBA Officiating - Corrupt? Incompetent? Which is worse? Does it matter? It sucks.
