I have rarely ever seen "us" be so hard on an NBA player in my life!!! Most everyone knows that it take big men LONGER to develop and shock or all shocks, it took Hassan longer as well.I will side with Bob Cousy on Whiteside:http://www.telegram.com/article/20150325/NEWS/303269899We would be crazy to NOT offer him the max!!!Smitty77

Whiteside seems like the sort of guy who will have ego problems. I can see him pouting that he should be given a bigger role on offense since he has a big contract. I can see him pouting when Stevens sits him on the bench in the fourth quarter of a close game in favor of putting a smaller lineup with more shooting on the floor.A better (and cheaper) fit for the Celtics might be someone like Zaza Pachulia, a paint protector who is supposedly a good defender against the pick and roll and is a willing passer.
The difference is this, Exhibit HW, or headcase #1 will cost us lots of caproom and that's all. Exhibit DMC will cost us Smart, Kelly and Two or three Nets Picks, plus 13 million per year. No question DMC is better, but I would argue Hassan comes cheaper.

No question DMC is better, but I would argue Hassan comes cheaper.Who is giving up Smart and three Brooklyn picks for Cousins? That seems like a straw man.Also, don't forget to factor in the additional $10 million player we can sign if we acquired the cheaper DMC and shed some salary in the trade.And, Cousins is much, much better than Whiteside.
