Here's some video featuring some of Mr Wright's on-court antics (the audio runs way ahead of the video):

If we do it will be the first time since the 1974-1975 season when Hank Finkel, Don May and Don Smith were all in the league. At the time Finkel was in his last season with the Celtics, May was playing his final season as well with the Kansas City-Omaha Kings, and Smith was in his only season with the 76ers. That season however also saw Roger Brown playing in the ABA for the Indiana Pacers. I will have to do some research later to see if they all played on the same night. However, hopefully next year we see at least 4 in the league(with the addition of KD) and maybe 5(if Searcy can make it).

Weren't Knight, Toney, and Paxson in the league at the same time? Someone help me out.

I think Paxson retired after Knight's senior year at UD.

Toney I believe was out of league for a few years when Knight was in, then came back for a short time.

Yes, both Toney and Paxson were gone after Knight's final year. Toney came back for 12 games with Cleveland during the 1993-94 season. Never did face off against Knight.

Celtics just had a 6-game losing streak, and then lost a player to injury for the year last night (Rondo).... sounds like they need some help.

Maybe belongs in the other thread, but wouldn't BRob be a nice addition to the Celtics??

A nice Rondo Replacement.

Between Paul Pierce and Jeff Green, the Celtics wouldn't be a great spot for Chris at the moment, not a lot of minutes to spread around at the SF spot behind those 2.

edit: based upon the comment above, regarding rondo, a nice rest of the season move for them could be to move Jeff Green for an established PG that can defend some of the stronger gaurds in the Eastern division playoffs (Wade, Rose when he returns, Deron Williams, etc..) then bring up someone like Wright to backfill Paul Pierce's minutes when he needs rest.

I agree, but man do they need some energy off the bench (and rebounding too)

The C's are in a tough spot. They don't have a true point guard on the roster right now Jeff Green is a very good player who would contribute a lot more if it wasn't for paul pierce taking so many minutes. The C's have played poorly this year by their standards. Trading Jeff Green would be giving up a significant piece of your future for a team that might not even make the playoffs. I wouldn't trade jeff green for brob given the team's current status.

A second round pick for Brob or perhaps a veteran point sitting on the bench? That is more likely.

If they did trade green picking up chris would be a good move for them as mentioned above

Sounds like the Celtics might even be trading Paul Pierce... They are currently sitting at the 8th seed with an under-500 record... they need to do something if they even wanna make the playoffs.

Watched some of CW's game on youtube last night. He looks like a veteran among boys right now. Hopefully gets a chance soon!

Scored 27 points in each of last 2 games and 15 and 12 rebounds, respectively.

the celtics have won seven in a row but their entire season has been up and down. If they drop out of the race they could trade pierce who is interested in free agency unless the c's give him a long term deal

The replay clip is worth the effort to watch. Wright must be an incredible fan favorite with his athletic blocks, dunks, and rebounds.

It's the same feeling I had as a teen watching Oscar at UC and Roger Brown at UD and AAU. You just wait for their next magic act.

I hate to say it, but chances are that NIT championship team is going to be the most entertaining UD team I will ever see in my lifetime. So far Archie's recruits don't hold a candle athletically. I am hoping I am wrong.

How is the D-League structured...is it similar to Major League Baseball's farm system, where the players are part of a parent team's organization or can any NBA team call up and sign a D-League player to it's roster during the season? What I'm trying to determine is if CW's ability to get back into the NBA this year is dependent upon the Celtics specific needs or if some other team needs to trade for him.

I think it is similar to hockey, in that multiple teams invest in a team, but some players are not under contract with anybody. Take CJ for example, Rio Grande is a Rockets farm team, but he was under contract to nobody in that any of the 30 teams could sign him. However, if a player is designated for assignment they have to go to the certain team, like CW did last year after he was sent down to Dakota.

It's a mix. I'm not real familiar with the hocky minor leagues, but in the DLeague many players are not the property of any NBA team. But others are signed/property of an NBA team and then assigned to the DLeague. CW was the property of the Warriors when he was in the DLeague last year. This year he is not the property of any NBA team and can be signed to a full year or 10 day contract by any NBA team.

Both arrangements have their pluses and minuses. If CW is owned by GSW and plays for Dakota, both teams have a vested interest in grooming him for specific GSW roles. But when it's not progressing to GSW's satisfaction, CW has no other option.

With the Claws, he can go to any team as stated, but the downside is no team has a specific fast track defined for him either. CW has some gaudy numbers 18/game and 9/game but he is the FIFTH leading scorer--on his team. Lots of points and rebounds to be had on that team can be misleading. Of course his entertainment value cannot be denied, but that is pretty far down the list of attributes that an NBA team is seeking.

From Brian Roberts today, compliments of Swampy:

CW already had one great chance with GSW where preparation collided with need, it just didn't work out for him.

He's also the 2nd rated player in the entire league. He'll probably get another opportunity.

If you want to follow the 10-day contract transactions, here's a link:

CJ's status should be updated soon. Those players who's 10-day contracts have been extened for the remainder of the season are noted.

Responsibilities

This is killing me, but I'm going to miss CW playing in Austin tomorrow night. My daughter's last team practice is at the same time, and they really need the practice going into the play-offs this weekend.

Argh. I hope Chris gets called up tomorrow so I don't have to say I missed seeing him when he was in town.

This is from the article at the link above that Fan4allUDsports posted.

[I]The 2012-13 season marks the fourth season that the Celtics have used the Maine Red Claws as their NBA Development League affiliate and the first under a new hybrid affiliation, in which Boston is Maine's sole NBA affiliate and has full control over the team's basketball operations.[/I]

Makes you wonder if Boston has full control over the team, if they may be saying no to anyone calling and inquirying about signing CW, even to a 10 day contract.

IMO all the participants know the advantages and disadvantages of being with an "affiliated" NBADL team vs. a "non-affiliated" NBADL team.

With Chris being in the top 3 prospects in the NBADL, if I were Boston I would not let him talk to another team if he's on contract. Boston is in a state of transition right now and it would make no sense to give up the rights to young inexpensive prospect like CW.

Of course he could always be a pawn in "Let's Make a Deal" transactions with other teams who may be offering up something the Celtics covet.

It's just a bidness.

And with the NBA trading deadline less than a week away, my hunch is your are correct and we will see CW wearing a _____________ uniform real soon.

The problem with a Rondo/Howard trade is the $ differential in their contacts. Including CW in the deal does nothing to lessen that.

In CW's defense he got drafted by the Red Claws. I don't know if he would have control over saying no to a team.

I managed to watch one minute of this game and had to turn it over, even with CW playing. Nothing being played on that court resembles the game of basketball whatsoever. Maybe I'm just too old fashioned.

This game is barely recognizable as basketball. There is not only a lack of defense, but none at times.

Agreed. The NBA sucks. It's more like Harlem Globetrotters meets WWF entertainment meets the circus. It's more about the show (and the $$$) than the game...

It's an all-star game. That is how all of them are played. I wish they'd take it more serious, same with the Pro-Bowl, but is what it is. On a side note, this is why the MLB all-star game is the only one I'll watch. If you watch two quality teams in the NBA, they play defense. And Maine is not just an affiliate of Boston, but also Charlotte and Philly.

http://www.nba.com/dleague/news/affiliates_110707.html

Per the President of the D-League, Dan Reed in an interview they did during the game "most players in the D-League are free agents as far as the NBA is concerned. Every NBA team has an affiliate they can call players up from and assign players too." With that said, I have no idea if Chris is looked at as a free agent to all NBA teams or not. I believe he is, since he wasn't assigned to a D-League team by a NBA team and was drafted instead.

Chris is a free agent because he isn't on an nba roster. If he was assigned to the d league by someone he would be on their roster making the nba minimum salary for his years of service. Last season he started as a free agent in the d league but was later added to an nba roster

Ridiculous; they sign this guy who's currently playing in China after being released several times by various teams in the NBA....all with the overtones of "not following team rules"? Why not give CW a shot? He's playing in the CELTIC farm system basically, has proven himself this year by dominating the DNBA league, isn't a troublemaker, exhibits exemplary behavior both on and off the court....I don't get it. Hope another team sees’s the value of Chris and picks him up....

Starting to become clear why players like Chris go to a foreign league instead of the DL. No money in the DL and it seems as though you can dominate the league and not get a shot. If he is not called up soon, I suspect he will be making six figures off shore in the not too distant future.

No ideas, hoping that means we hear good news tomorrow, as in he got the call.
Edit
Haven't seen him on the bench or with the team on the game. I wonder if he is even there.


Edit 2, don't I feel like an idiot

Per media guide

Chris Wright: concussion out indefinitely.

Between Williams and the recent Crawford acquisition, I hope the Celtics have an ample supply of stress meds onsite, b/c Doc Rivers will need 'em. And it wouldn't hurt if they had a prison guard on staff, either, to keep the miscreants in line.

i doubt Doc will need meds. I think he will give them a chance and if they act like morons he will tell ainge to get rid of them. I don't remember the C's taking chances like this before but maybe they think Garnett and Pierce can keep these guys in line.

Celtics to sign PF DJ White:

Danny Ainge must have mis-heard Doc Rivers. Doc told Danny "Get me Wright" and Danny thought he said "White."

CW--no call from anybody?

I don't get it? Why he hasn't earned at least a 10 day contract.

That is the $100,000 question. More than likely it's his agent working back channels and advising him to hold out for something more guaranteed. I hope like heck his agent is doing what's best for CW.

Unproven and hungry NBDL players are not in a position to pick and choose NBA opportunities...they take the first one available...especially DURING the season.

Wright's agent screwed up last summer when he signed Chris to a Toronto Raptors tems that already had 14 guaranteed contracts/players on their 2012-13 roster. If he's still representing Chris, it might explain alot.

There is something about Chris's skill set or attitude that really turns teams off. He has been too productive in the D league to not receive a chance

CW

From everything I've read for ever about this kid----it can't be his attitude----I think honestly that that alone got him a helluva' big pay check for the entire 11-12 season in Golden State. I've never heard anything but great things about his stellar work habits, effort at practice and presence on a team as a team member.


Now he clearly has always had trouble shooting the ball outside the lane. I know he's working on that aspect of his game and has shot and intially was hittinga solid amount of 3 pointers, etc. Haven't checked his number's recently....

Does he still have the same agent that he had earlier this year----maybe he should try BRob's agent?

Chris did change agents in the last year. Not sure on the timing--if it was before or after the Toronto debacle.

Problem is 6'8" players with his athleticism are pretty common in the NBA. Now throw in the fact that most guy 6'8" can also shoot and havw good post moves and CW does not; there's your 100,000 answer. CWs problem, he should have played the 4 in college and developed and not have worried about shooting 3's

I must disagree. Chris' athleticism is rare, even in the NBA.

His ball handling and shooting might be weak, but very few people possess his athleticism.

Wow!

The CW legend lives on! 22 points and 11 boards. More importantly, a dunk plus an offensive tip-in in the last 22 seconds as Maine wins by 2. Here is the game video - just skip to the last minute and enjoy.

You gotta watch this video!

CW scores on an alley-oop with 25 seconds left. The best part is the announcers actually say "maybe CW can get open for an alley-oop" before the play.

Then to top that off, CW tips in a miss with a second left on the clock to win the game.

I think someone mentioned this in the CJ thread, but if I'm Chris Wright and I don't catch on with a NBA team during next year's pre-season, I look to Europe. He is talented enough to play in one of the top leagues over there and can make very good money. He has nothing left to prove in the NBDL. He is a man amongst boys in that league.

If I was CJ, I'd give it another year in the NBDL and hope to catch on again. If he doesn't, he should head to Europe as well and make some money.

That was me. I think the D league has a few potential NBA players but I think there may be more scrubs to fill out the teams. I am sure it is hard to do but one has to be realistic about making the NBA. If you are not going to make it, go grab so me money overseas.

Doc Rivers was in Portland to watch this game in person. CW drained a three and then made a game-saving block, after winning their previous tilit on a tip in with 1 second left.

What else does this dude have to do to get a 10 contrcat with your team, Doc?

Just to add on that is the second time in as many months that he EARNED that award. I hope he gets the call real soon. I wonder if any playoff teams could use his energy off the bench.

21 pts 20 rbs last night...and with less than 20 games remaining in the NBA season things don't look promising for a return to the League for Chris.

I also open this thread thinking that he has been called up. It has to be that nba managers do not think that Chris's game translates well to the nba. The most likely issue is ball handling

GM's may also question his durability after 2 concussions in 4 months. Frustrating that the Red Claws' other 6'8" forward was signed to a 10-day contract by the Clippers this week.

Caught the Red Claws - Toros game this evening. I splurged for floor seats seeing how I'd never sniff the floor in an NBA game.

Chris had 17 (including a 3) in a winning effort. He could have scored more, but was unselfish and passed instead of trying to force it. He played good defense, had a nice block and tie-up. Toward the end of warm-ups he made a dunk contest type of dunk - started jogging in from the arc, tossed the ball off the backboard, and had a sweet one-handed put-back jam.

There were three of us Flyers sitting together. When Maine first entered the court Chris ran by and slapped hands with us, and when the game was over he came over to say hi, signed my wife's UD shirt, and took a picture with us. It would be great to see him that close up again, but I really hope he gets called up soon.

It's the Chris Wright show. Really, I mean, really?

If I were Chris I would ask my current coach and every NBA scout that I coiuld contact and ask "WHAT DO I NEED TO DO IN ORDER TO PLAY IN THE NBA? WHY DIDN'T I RECEIVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY THIS SEASON" I would take that to heart and work on EXACTLY what they tell me I should work on.

What I see is the majority of really awesome crowd-inspiring shots he makes, he will not get a chance very often to make in the NBA unless the game morphs into mop-up time.

That, and a good deal of his "learned responses" on the court are mechanical. The ability to make the instinctive pass, cut, defense, is not natural. Bottom line is you can't "work on" that. That alone doesn't mean he can't help some team along the way.

Then finally it goes back to what Brian Roberts said. That is you have to be ready for your opportunity and take advantage of it. Chris wasn't ready for GSW when they were bad and needed help. That opportunity is gone, and now GSW is pretty good.

He should get another chance with somebody. They have him as the number 3 NBADL prospect at this point.

the main problem is CW never developed the needed skills to stick on an NBA roster. He needed to become a lockdown defender (his defense at UD bounced between Ok and indifferent) and a good post scorer.

Now he is a couple of years removed from college and he still isn't a good defender or post scorer. He can play a game of playground ball but offers no compelling reason for an NBA team to sign him. GSW let him stick around because of his freakish athleticism but they obviously reached the conclusion that he wasn't going to develop enough for them to hang onto him.

The playgrounds of NYC are littered with CW's. Freakish athletes who look like world-beaters in a playground game. But he doesn't have that natural feel for the game I think.

When I see high school kids playing I always try to jump in and run with them. It's so much da*n fun. Here comes the "old guy" (almost 40!), who's stuck with him to make 5 on 5?? Then I make sure to guard the quickest kid. 90% of the time he can't score on me and it drives him absolutely CRAZY. He's quicker, faster, jumps higher, has more moves than me. . . but he doesn't know how to play the game yet. I usually know where he's going before he does. It's just not that hard.

When you play with the "old" guys, you're in for a battle. You better fight on every second of every play because they know when to back door, when to step in, and how to use their bodies. That's real basketball.

I can totally relate to your story. But here's the rub. That kid you schooled on defense is guarded in AAU and HS by guys that can't play defense. They feed on each other. If he gets the right advice and isn't full of himself, he will probably be on scholarship somewhere.

An analogy would be the young tennis player who is ferocious from the baseline but gets schooled by veterans who can manage pace and slice and dice. The power hitter gets the scholarship because the whole college game has morphed into the style he plays now.

It seems like if there's one flyer who could stand to spend a couple years in europe it's Chris Wright. Don't be afraid of it, don't be ashamed of it. It would help his game tremendously. There's a huge difference in the way the game is played over there, and i think it would benefit him to play with unselfish players and coaches that all have high hoops I.Q.'s and let the highlight reel take a breather for a couple years. It worked for BRob. And its working for Parker. (I just saw a highlight reel of him the other day and he looks like a totally different player. I doubt parker will ever be in the NBA. But he is now putting on display the ability to effortlessly take guys off the dribble from the point guard spot, penetrate and dish like he did only in moments at UD.)

I haven't seen Chris play recently, but back when he was at UD he needed better ball handling, a better outside shot, and better defensive fundamentals. But he also needed better instincts. When to cut, when to roll, where to be, etc. I don't know if he'll ever get all of what he needs to be a permanent fixture in the NBA. But if he has any hope of picking up those skills, it would be in europe. Not in the NBDL where it's really just a glorified AAU league of hot dogs and me-first type of players.

I'd be curious to know the payday disparity between his likely European assignment and the NBADL. Just a guess but I bet his one year with GSW paid him 2/3 times what he would make in Europe. Roberts did well because he was in the highest league and won championships.

As long as he is top 3 in the NBADL I think he waits it out there.

Just 2 cents. The whole situation is so fluid anything could happen.

SDF, I totally agree. Rememebr, the one thing that the Warriors loved about this guy was his work ethic. He will get another chance, he just has to latch on and take full advantage of it.

CW's status

In light of the changes that appear to be taking place with the celtics and the recently completed draft does any one have any information or thoughts on what it "might" mean to Chris and his options for next year.

Does anyone know where he's spending the summer and/or with whom he's working out?

This is where CW finds out what kind of agent he's got. With these credentials, even Rollo could get him a good gig:

"Finally, Chris Wright logged heavy minutes for the Maine Red Claws (35.1 MPG), and averaged 18.3 points, 9.2 rebounds 2.0 assists and 1.5 blocks per game."
