Update: Tanguay's GUT says Rasheed Wallace to Boston looks to be a done deal

[Mr October]

man this is painful.... wading through the rumors for 2 more days.... if this is true, then i will be one extremely happy camper! 

[beantownboy171]

It matters which Sheed we get.  If we get the one from last season who didn't care and just sat outside gunning threes then he's not gonna be much help.  If we get a motivated Sheed trying for one more ring, then that would be great.  

This is getting way ahead but I think he'd come off the bench. That way he'd be the go to guy off the bench rather then one of 5 guys trying to score.  I think he'd like that better and I think it ballances the line up better.  But that discussion is for another day.    

if he's on a team with a screaming KG, he will be as motivated as ever, it may bring back the sheed who lead the league in techs, but that's ok

Haha yah maybe he and perk can start their only little tech competition.

The Refs are gonna love us!!

He is a perfect fit to play with KG or Perk. Cut both of their minutes down... You play the 3 of them like 32 minutes a night. Perfect fit.

He has to get his ass in the post more though...

"As we told you last week on Sports Tonight the Celtics would love to get Rasheed Wallace to come off the bench this year. As we grow closer to the post July 1st NBA free agent signing period the chances of Rasheed wearing green this coming season are very good.
He is good friends with Keving Garnett and he has a great interest in coming here.
My gut tells me Rasheed  Wallace will be come a Celtic soon."

I just dont trust Tanguay but I hope he's right.

Sheed would fit perfectly with the Celtics. He would have a ball with KG & gang. I really hope this is true.

That's a lot different than him saying his sources tell him that Sheed is coming.

let's see the report at 10.

I wonder if Sheed signing would mean the end of the Big baby era in Boston? Would Danny really spend the entire MLE on Rasheed, a C/PF type and then spend another $3-5 million a year on Baby who would be playing the same position? Something tells me if the C's sign either Rasheed, Gooden or McDyess, Baby's days in Boston are over.

I don't like Rasheed Wallace.

He's extremely volatile, prone to ups and downs in performance. He will take bad shots, miss them, then take even more bad shots. He's about as clutch as Chris Webber, and to op it off, he's a technical foul waiting to happen.

I don't think he will accept coming off the bench in Boston.

The rumour that we're interesting in Oberto sounds much more exciting.

[Prof. Clutch]

Love the idea of Sheed in green, hate the idea of spending our full MLE on him.

naw fellas..he goin to cleveland
