A 3-and-D with a lot more D than 3 at the moment. But it seems like he fits really well with the team and everything Brad Stevens says about him sounds like he loves coaching Semi.

The trust Stevens already has in him is impressive. Depending on who was out there, he guarded Curry at times, Green at times and Durant at times. Not bad for a first year guy from lil ol SMU...

Semi and the Celtics are in town tonight. I hope SMU fans in attendance give Semi a nice ovation when he enters the game.

Semi gets his usual 15 minutes in the Celtics' 116-111 win against Phoenix and hits 2-3 treys for 6 points and grabs 2 boards. Boston now a NBA best 20-4.

Meanwhile in Ft Wayne, IN Ben Moore remains a solid contributor for the Mad Ants. I see he is averaging 18 points in their 3 road games. Overall he is averaging 11 points and 7 boards

Semi pulled down 5 boards in just 11 minutes during Boston's loss at Chicago last night. Impressive!

Nice game for Sterling last night - 11 points in 12 min on 4-4 shooting (3-3 on 3's).
