Re: Delonte West heading back to Boston, joining Celtics
[QUOTE=Kurosawa0]I really don't see this changing the match up with Boston and Miami. If Miami plays the LeBron, Wade, Miller, Bosh and Anthony lineup, I wouldn't want West out on the floor.[/QUOTE]
Outside of Miller, West is still better than any other guard Miami can bring off the bench. West is a good player when focused, obviously big if but he has the talent

Well, if Boston is getting him to match up with Mario Chalmers or Carlos Arroyo, I guess that's fine.

They are getting him to add depth and a guy who can score and defend. I imagine he is their replacement for Tony Allen.
Having depth is a good thing certainly for an older team.

I don't feel as bad about TA leaving now. Delonte can defend nearly as well, but his offense is a lot better.

Sure, I just don't see this as a big deal or a move that helps them beat another good team.
Re: Delonte West heading back to Boston, joining Celtics
He's a real important piece. You can't not guard the point guard position the embarrassing way Kobe was doing now. Plus Allen can get proper rest. Shaq might have the best shooters ever around him.

He's just another piece to an already great team. Just like Matt Barnes joining L.A was a good role player signing into a championship winning team. It always helps.
Re: Delonte West heading back to Boston, joining Celtics
This is a great sign.... Hopefully Pierce, Allen, Kevin and Shaq can solve one of the biggest puzzles in the history of mankind.
is Delonte West black or white?
stay tuned.

The difference is that you can argue Barnes gives the Lakers a better shot at matching up against Miami. West doesn't do that for Boston.

half black, half cherokee.
Great pick up for C's, stupid loss for cavs. Delonte can do just about everything good. Needs to learn to stay on his meds during the offseason though.

Not comparing the players but the situation. Clearly Barnes is going to have more of an impact overall. Afterall Barnes was the starting SF on a quailty Magic team last year.
Re: Delonte West heading back to Boston, joining Celtics
called this awhile ago, ****ing great signing by the celtics
Re: Delonte West heading back to Boston, joining Celtics
Yes he finally got picked up! too many teams slept on him. Boston has a sick squad.
