Summary

Celtics president of basketball ops discussed a wide variety of topics on the C's during his weekly interview with Toucher & Rich on Thursday, Nov. 14. He puts a more positive spin on the rumors of rookie Romeo Langford being particularly "immature". Ainge also talks about Marcus Smart's much-improved three-point shooting, which has helped a lot with secondary scoring. He also went into detail on what it might be like for Gordon Hayward as he recovers from a broken non-shooting hand. And of course, more flop talk with Ainge himself, who admitted he got the better end of the deal in a lot of what he called "acting" during his playing days.
