This is a chance to write about the player that came into your franchise with
the most hype,
either as a rookie or a free agent signing or however -- and whether or not
he lived up to that hype.

介紹一下一些進入celtics球隊而備受期待的新人或是簽入Celtics的自由球員(無論是否
結果符合期待)

Kedrick Brown was my favorite binky for a few years there.
The hype wasn't his fault, he was a JUCO player
that wasn't really even expected to get picked until later in the first
round.
But the Celtics had 3 first rounders and had nabbed a quality player in Joe
Johnson
with the 10th pick and decided to roll the dice on Brown with the 11th.

出身JUCO系統並奇蹟般地在首輪選秀被挑中，Kedrick Brown受到過高的期待並非他的錯
。
Celtics以第10順位挑中Joe Johnson之後，接著第11順位決定在Brown身上賭了一把

The scouting report we got from the team at the time was that he was a
otherworldly jumper
that could also hit three pointers and defend his position.
 Well, he lived up to the jumping part at least.
His garbage time dunks were events of the week for me and many fans.
 Two handed rim-rattlers that featured the top of his head brushing past the
net.

看看分析他的球探報告，林林總總列出具有驚人的彈跳力，三分投射能力及防守
嗯，至少他的確具有不錯的彈跳力
事實上球賽垃圾時間看到他的每周dunk總是非常好看
每每看到他飛身躍起加上雙手拉籃框的英姿

Sadly that's about all he could do on an NBA court.
His shooting never really showed itself to be consistent and
he wasn't that great a defender.  In fact, most times he looked lost on the
court
and forget about putting the ball on the floor to drive.

令人難過的，在NBA球場，這是他惟一的能力
他的投籃不穩，防守失神，也忘了如何運球突破

Brown was eventually moved to Cleveland in the Ricky Davis for Eric Williams
deal
but that's not the deal that everyone talks about with Kedrick.
In his rookie year there was a trade being discussed with the Suns involving
the Celtics getting some veteran help in the form of Rodney Rogers and
Tony Delk.  The Suns wanted one of our young players
and the Celtics were the ones that picked Joe Johnson to send away.

Brown最後在Ricky Davis的交易案中被打包送往Cleveland
這項交易中Brown算是配菜，當時大多數人不會對他有太大印象。
Brown的新人年，在Celtics急需老將戰力下
與太陽隊達成了協議，送出了Joe Johnson，而不是Brown

It’s easy to see now that we made a mistake putting Joe Johnson into that
trade,”
 said then-Celtics general manager Chris Wallace,
now the Memphis GM. “But at the time it wasn’t such a simple call.
Joe wasn’t playing and his confidence was shot.
Kedrick was playing, and Obie (then-coach Jim O’Brien) liked him.
It looked like Kedrick’s role was going to expand.
But with the trade he went from starting to not playing.
“The next year he was looking really good in camp,
but he came down in the bench area in a game at Mohegan Sun and
really hurt his ankle badly.
When he came back, his 3-ball wasn’t falling (3-for-39)
and Obie went away from him.


前任CelticsGM，現任灰熊GM的Chris Wallace提到，'我們交易Jon Johnson是個錯誤，但
當時卻不是個容易的決定
Joe的狀況及信心不足，Brown的狀況ok且O'Brien喜歡他
很明顯地Brown會有更大的發揮空間，但在這筆交易完成後，他開始打不出好球來
隔一年的訓練營，他狀況很好卻受了傷，當他康復重新上場後卻狀況不好
三分球也開始投不進，最後Obie從他身邊離開。
