How does he fit in with Green on the bench and Garnett starting?

That's interesting. Does that mean the Celtics are trading for Cp3?

[MMM]

I wonder how this impact the long term cap room.

Not unless Stern has anything to veto about it.

Didn't see it coming

Bass
Wilcox
and now West?


After signing different combo guards in the past seasons, seems like Ainge is now falling in love on signing F/C

with KG's age and knee condition, would he be coming now off the bench now? Shaq gave a hint that KG is playing hurt last season. Might be.

I'm still wondering why Celtics and Mavs want cap space for 2012, OJ Mayo? Cause there won't be anybody else there to get, Howard and CP3 and Deron aren't losing their bird rights.

Ainge doing a great job getting enough cap space to do this. Celtics are in a win NOW situation, this helps them tremendously do that.

Now they can have a Rondo-Allen-Pierce-West-Garnett line-up, or bring West off the bench with Green and start Wilcox/O'Neal.

[D-Rose]

Where's the cap space? Or MLE used?

[ProfessorMurder]

Wow, not expecting that...

[longtime lurker]

Guess they'll be playing tons of small ball. Smart signing, gives Boston a chance to rest it's older vets. Bass, West, Wilcox, Green, Garnett, Oneal and Pierce is a very versatile front court.

[DevilsAssassin]

is it a sign and trade deal involving Jeff Green and Bass?

[zay_24]

Cektics?

gotta be fake.

[HB40TheNextStar]

I'm not sure what they would do with him, but he would be a tremendous get for the C's if they keep him.

rofl Bosh/Lebron/Battier/Miller/Wade lineup it is...

[Killbot]

Damn! Danny Ainge doing quick quality work.
