    trying to think of a good comparison...possibly courtney lee with less athleticism, but more crafty and better shooting form. He's not a Steve Novak kind of shooter, lacks the consistency, but has good foundation on his jumper.

    Guys, it's a tank job. We will have a top 3 pick in the next 3 years.

    Unfortunately Forbes looks more like a 2/3 than he does an undersized 4 :(

    Our quest to acquire a team full of pfs continues.

    They're trying a form of rebuilding that has never succeeded before--playing an all forward lineup.

    After watching the Boston Highlights, he looks like a Point Forward. He played exclusively at point against Rondo.
