Re: Summer League
The real story of the Summer League, being a Celts fan, is Justin Reed. He shut down everyone he guarded against the Clippers, including Shaun Livingston, and he turned in a solid performance against a NBA experienced Mavs team.
Not to mention this was in the Globe today (in an interview with Perkins, Jefferson and Green):
[ QUOTE ]
Perkins: If he can handle Justin Reed on defense, then he can handle Paul [Pierce] on defense because Justin is way better than Paul. Justin will lock Paul up in practice. If you can take Justin and Tony's defense, then you ain't going to have no problem with Paul.
Jefferson: Or nobody else in the league.
Perkins: Justin is the only person I saw lock up Kobe [Bryant].
Jefferson: Just lock him up.
