Highlight: Rondo Leads The Break

I love this decision-making from Rajon Rondo. While leading the break, you can see him eyeballing Ray Allen, who runs the wing and spots up on the arc. The Sixers have a 1-2 disadvantage but are mostly concerned about Allen’s three balls, which allows Mickael Pietrus to make an unmolested baseline cut behind the defense. [...]

Celtics Bringing Gilbert Brown To Camp

CSNNE reports the Celtics have invited Pittsburgh’s Gilbert Brown to training camp. The 6’6″ Brown went undrafted earlier this year, but the Celtics reportedly considered him in the spot in which they took E’Twaun Moore.

Assuming he makes the team, Brown looks like an end-of-the-bench and practice player who can fill out the roster without sacrificing cap flexibility next summer.

Chad Ford’s pre-draft scouting report:

Positives
  • Good athlete, well rounded
  • Solid shooter with 3-point range
  • Fluid in the open court
  • Good passer, unselfish
Negatives
  • Not a prolific scorer
  • Already 23 years old

We’ll also have the full 2011-12 Celtics schedule for you today just after 7 p.m. EST.

We already know that after opening at New York on Christmas Day, the Celtics will travel to Miami on the 27th to play the Heat with the home opener set for Dec. 30 against the Detroit Pistons.
