    I'm so glad the voice of reason (CarlHerrera) showed up.

    Why do the rest of us bother posting? Let's just wait and read what CH has to say. :rolleyes:

    We're clearly going after Brandon Bass

    Avery Bradley or melo . forget the pick cause boston always makes playoffs and terry in starting lineup is ALOT more dangerous than allen in starting lineup

    Neither of these IMO. They want someone to throw at Lebron and/or Wade. Lee is one of the few guys in the league that can at least keep up with those guys on defense.

    Good to hear we can do a sign and trade with lee. However I hope we stil retain some vets on our team to keep a good balance. Don't want our situation to be like the kings in previous years

    There's going to be a lot of scenarios, let's hope Morey picks the right one and isn't afraid to take back some salary if the player fits. I hope Lee doesn't go to the Celtics, rather see him go to a classy team .

    Courtney Lee gets murked by bigger wings. He's a PG/SG defense specialist, good at guarding speedy PG;s

    Basically, he is a back-up point guard. The Rockets are really starting over man since we don't even have starting and back-up point guard...smh :confused:

    The guy started over Ray Allen. Celtics value him plenty.

    Maybe another option is, if Blazers finally match for Batum, call Kahn and try to get a 1st round pick next to the unguaranteed of Martell Webster, or Brad Miller.

    Fail. If they don't get Batum, have enough cap to offer Lee what he's asking for.

    I'd looove to see him Bos-my fave east team :cool:

    now that jason terry is no longer in a mav uniform, I can see myself warming up to him a smidget of a bit

    they lost Ray Ray but didnt lose much, if any at all, with Terry.. hes a better off the dribble player creating his own shot, and is just as clutch, if not more than Allen.. I really luv what Boston has done this offseason, and possibly adding Lee would make them far better than last

    Idk what we'd get in return tho, becuz I have no idea what the Rockets are doing but like I always say, Ill stay tuned

    Boston Lineup:
    Rondo
    Bradley
    Pierce
    Bass
    Garnett
    key additions: Terry(egghead) Fab Melo, Sullinger, potentially CLee and this team is poised to dethrone the Heat (wouldve last year had Bradley not been hurt)
    if Camby goes to MIA then its a tossup

    Who cares! We are actually re-building correctly. We'll find a center along the way, if not we will convert one of our many PFs into a center.
