Pass me the rock nikka
Dog, he's the number one overall pick he said he wanted to be MVP next year, these kids have huge egos. They want to compete for RoY and they want to be starters out the gate. No number one overall pick wants to come off the bench. It's up to him to embrace his role and work hard and be ready for his come up down the line.Why would you not want to be on a contender with a system and a culture? Isn't that exactly what a young player needs?
Coming off the bench is one thing. nikkas are talking about cats not even getting into the rotation and not even being competitive in regards to getting a spot or some clock. I don't see how that can entertain such a thought with a guy you are pushing as the top pick.
Well, I think he'll be in the rotation. Fultz can easily take Terry Rozier's role (74 games, 17 minutes per) and get some of Smart's minutes (79 games, 30 minutes off the bench). I think he'll be a 20-25 minute guy in a scoring role off the bench, probably get some spot starts as Bradley has never played an entire season and Stevens will likely look to rest guys. If he's absolutely killing it in his role, the Celtics will likely make a trade during the season.
