those kooky brazilians are taking over the celtics.
[QUOTE=lilgodfather1]Barbosa isn't a great player, but he's decent enough. Nice depth signing though, and good for the East so the Heat just don't sweep their way to the finals this year. Maybe the Celtics can push them to 5 now.[/QUOTE]
5? Let's look at it objectively and not just as a fan. If they do meet, both teams will match up rather nicely. 7 game series all the way. Plus, Stern knows how to make money.
Seriously where the hell do the Celtics get all this money to keep signing players? Nice signing. Their depth reminds me of an Eastern conference version of the Spurs, but they have a lot of young vets
Good signing. Another smurf though? :oldlol:
I don't get the need for this...and I also don't get how many exemptions a team can get. What the hell was that lockout for?
Any backcourt will have nightmares when facing the Celtics this season.
I heard rumours of him earlier during the off-season possibly joining the Cavs. Thank f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]ck that didn't happen.
[QUOTE=ChuckOakley]Lee is 6'6"?
On the Nets he looked closer to 6'4" and thin.[/QUOTE]

6'5 here
[QUOTE] Terry was listed as 6'1 for over a decade... I'm not buying that he grew an inch in his mid-late 30's. Barbosa is definitely not anywhere near 6'4 as Billups is taller than him and in 90 percent of listings on the web Barbosa is 6'3.[/QUOTE]
I never remember Terry as anything but 6'2. Barbosa supposedly grew close to an inch and they don't generally change heights. Please show us the 6'4" listing for Chauncey?
Ray Allen will be missed by the Celtics. He is as good of a shooter as they come. He will flourish in Miami with Lebron.
Lee is 6'5 and Barbosa is 6'3. As from Terry i'd say he's closer to 6'1 but listed at 6'2 everywhere. I'm lost on why Barbosa wouldn't pick the lakers over boston? bradley, terry, lee and rondo is going to be crowded but never can have to much depth

Lakers were an option for him?

And this is relevant in this discussion because?
boston is going to trade some of their backcourt players right? i assume a bass+lee/bradley for a josh smith type of deal is coming up :confusedshrug:

Does that make Doc Rivers, Papa Smurf? :coleman:

That's awful value to Atlanta. I see Celtics having to give up at least one of their young draft picks and a future pick
