he had some good games vs boston/orlando/thunder scroing over 20 points.
But the memphis game i liked it mostly because he was dominating the rebounds ..
He had 13 pts/15 rebounds and beasted Marc gasol. He had multiple 20 point games against Boston but his rebounding was not great.

Also I didn't know they hired Frank, thats a great signing.
Oh so all the credit doesn't only go to Thibs, it goes to Thibs AND Tony Allen.
The TA situation reminds me of when Posey left and how everyone thought the Celtics defense would take a big hit. One player does not make or break the Celtics defense, we'll still be among the top 5-7 defensive teams next season at worst.
BTW, do you really think Wafer will have any impact on the Celtics D? The guy will be lucky to get 8 minutes a game. Shaq shouldn't be much of a problem either when you have KG, JO and Perk sharing minutes with him.

That's seriously pathetic that the Hawks didn't offer more than the vet minimum. Just pathetic. They are sufficiently under the luxury tax to have signed him to a bigger offer.
Who are we looking at now? Kwame Brown - at least he's better than Jason Collins.

Re: Shaq close to agreement with Celtics
NICE. The one weakness the team had, rebounding, has been addressed with the 2 O'Neals. This team is going to be unbeatable in a series. Please hate on me all you like.

It's about the players going out vs the players coming in.
Shaq will be a defensive liability, and he will be commanding playing time, he always does.
Next year off the bench you'll have Robinson, Shaq, Von Wafer and Big Baby. None of these guys provides positive defense.
Add in that Perk wont be back until mid-season(I think) and that he has to get used to playing with the new guys as well, that's also a liability.
Fact is if the Celtics doesn't play some of the best defense in the league come playoffs it wont work because they're not good enough offensively in a HC setting.
Also the Celtics didn't get any younger, and they already have a big problem being one of the worst 4th quarter teams in the league.
