Re: Celtics trade Patrick O'Bryant to Raptors for Will Solomon
[QUOTE=MMM]Solomon is being sent to Sacramento for a conditional second round draft pick (similar to the Sam Cassell trade).
That gives the Celts two open roster spots, and they hope to fill at least one with a veteran big man over the next couple of weeks.
With their available bodies at 11, J.R. Giddens is being called up from the D-League and will be with the Celts when they play the Jazz tonight.
Boston hereld[/QUOTE]
They can't do that to me! I just talked myself into the Patrick O'Bryant era.
LONG LIVE THE BLACK IRISH!

Heres a video of Will for those celtic fans who have no idea who he is.[/QUOTE]
That pretty much sums up Will Soloman.
Re: Celtics trade Patrick O'Bryant to Raptors for Will Solomon
Raptors get: : Patrick O'Bryant
Kings:Will "Chuck" Solomon
Celtics:Heavily protected 2nd rounder from Sac
I like this trade,nothing special but if O'Bryant becomes half of what he could be, Raptors win this trade. I remember him during his college days, maybe he can gain more confidence in Toronto.
Re: Celtics trade O'Bryant to Raptors for Solomon
Sweet! Got rid of Solomon-cruddy! :pimp:

The guy was always up cheering his team on and quickly became one of my faves. Project Pat will be missed.

he's also a good passer.
Re: Celtics trade Patrick O'Bryant to Raptors for Will Solomon
Would of traded Solomon for a bag of balls..The fact that we're getting [B]anyone[/B] in return makes it a good trade for the Raps.
Re: Celtics trade Patrick O'Bryant to Raptors for Will Solomon
This is very similar to getting Primoz Brezec last year for Juan Dixon. O'Bryant is not much of a basketball player, but he's near 7'0 with good athleticism, with Hump's leg broken we needed another big.
So the Celts traded Will to the Kings for a second rounder? Looks like the Celtics have a veteran FA/retired big man in mind. Maybe Zo comes out of retirement for another ring?
As for the Kings, I assume they will buy out Solomon, who will head back to Europe and make a very decent living.
Re: Celtics trade Patrick O'Bryant to Raptors for Will Solomon
It's hard to believe O'Bryant was a lotter pick 3 years ago (#9). Talk about a bust.
Scrub for a scrub. This doesn't make us better at all.
I hope O'Bryant can turn out to be a surprise, and be productive.

yah what i was thinkinbg but with hump out we needed backup bigs and we had calderon roko and banks who can all hopefully be successful and solomon was just brutal glad we got rid of him
Re: Raptors, Celtics, Kings trade Will Solomon, Patrick O
Hopefully the Hawks can sign Mikki Moore, although early reports have him going to the Celtics.
