He's a god around here (I live 15 minutes away from Notre Dame), but after watching him play a million times, I'm actually glad the Celtics took him....he's slow and can't really shoot. _________________ *On Thin Ice*

If his defense translates to the NBA, this is why I like the pick (if he sticks around): our bench defense was poor. How many blown leads did the Lakers have this season, the past two or three seasons? Some of that is because of poor offense, but some of our bench players were atrocious on defense.
And while his offense is suspect, he can work on that. Having great defense will get him a minute or two, and you all can get your tacos.

Usually it's somebody you've never heard or seen this late in the 2nd round. Those who follow the NCAA tournament saw plenty of him during West Virginia's run. He's contributor on a winning team, that should bode well for us.

Devin Ebanks Wizards Workout and Interview - June 2, 2010
His shooting is just horrible and he looks lethargic in an important work out. How good can his defense be if he doesn't even hustle in a workout?
Do you really think a title team gives a (bleep) about this pick? Straight to D-League and then probably cut. Title teams don't sign projects... _________________ Kobe, on the other hand; RELISHES the injuries and just looks at it as evening the playing field.

I am soooo happy with this pick! Being a huge WVU fan, I have watched Devin play a lot, and really thing he can stick and be a solid contributor. _________________ Bleed Purple and Gold
