Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

“They’ve been together for a number of years,” Green said of the Celtics. “They’ve already won a championship, they’ve already have a system, they already have their chemistry and that bond on that team.

“It was tough to go into that situation.”

So what went wrong?

“It was tough to gather all that information so fast and try to gather the concepts of what they are trying to do,” Green said.

“I’ve been in the gym working, but things have been hairy,” Green said. “You never know what’s going to happen. I’m always going to be prepared. I’m just taking it day by day. There is nothing much I can do right now.

“When things get done, they get done.”

Like rookies, Green would have benefitted immensely from off-season workouts with his teammates and coaching staff. Oh well…
