Chris Lofton in NBA summer league

[JAllen18]

He's on the Celtics summer league roster.

Hope he impresses Danny Ainge. would love to see him get signed by them.

 

[JAllen18]

His stats from their first game was 8 points in 14 mins 2-4 from 3s

 

[SimpleOrange]

Imagine needing 2 to tie 3 to win final seconds with Allen, Sheed, Lofton, and Pierce in the game. How do you not score?

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

Celtics really need some bench help, Lofton has at least a decent shot at making the roster.

And don't forget about Eddie House, he can drain 3s with the best of them.

 

[Shadowboxer]

He only played 3 mins today and was 1-2 from 3-point line.

It'd take alot of players fouled out to have Lofton in the game at that moment.

Yeah, I suppose so. But Lofton could be an important piece of an NBA team sometime soon.

I'd love to have his name up there, but you've got to think that lineup looks a little more like
Rondo
Allen
Pierce
Garnett
Perkins

About as much of a chance as Crompton being an important piece of an NFL team sometime soon

Sheed will more than likely come off the bench. Perkins plays great D and they need Sheed's offense with the 2nd team

I'd actually go with that, I forgot about Sheed being ther now. We're talking about last seconds of a game, and if you have the ball down 2, you'd definitely have Sheed out there.

Come on. IMO Lofton would have been drafted if he hadn't had cancer his senior season.

Chris Lofton would be in the exact same situation had he left after his junior year or in any other scenario. He is not an NBA player

Lofton will probably not contribute much to an NBA team, but he will make an NBA roster before it's all said and done. It doesn't take much to fill out an NBA roster. It wouldn't surprise me to see the C's keep Lofton and release JR Giddens.

His ceiling is an Eddie House type role player, but he is definitly an NBA caliber player.

 

[ranradVOL]

Lofton's main competition to make the team is Lester Hudson. Hopefully Hudson won't play up to his ability.

BTW, for anyone who wants to watch Lofton play you can go to orlandomagic.com and watch all the celtics summer league games.

I don't think I'd go that far.

Lofton is draining 3's early on today

What # is he wearing today?

 

[ranradVOL]

Nevermind, he's #37 and he just drained another one.

 

[zehr27]

I hate the Celtics. I would hate to see one of my beloved vols go to a team I hate so much. Why can't the damn Pacers take a look at Lofton??

 

[ranradVOL]

Lofton leading the C's with 15 points right now. 4-4 from 3pt line.

I have been watching online and listening (very unfortunately).......these two guys are like the Sklar brothers. Except they are not funny and make no sense.
