    Right after I started playing NBA 2K9, the Celtics signed Mutombo. Going to be the same thing here...

    Give Deke the vet, and donate some money to the foundation. That way... it doesn't go against the luxury tax.

    Why? What if Adelman doesn't want Mutombo because he doesn't fit the offense?

    I can tell you that he doesn't fit in Celtics offense either. He is comming of the bench for rebounds and first of all DEFENSE.

    I'll be rather disappointed if we don't sign Mutombo. I won't be upset at him because he has to do what he has to do but Morey should have worked something out. The man said all along he wanted to play for us darn it, give him the money and work out LT issues before trade deadline.

    If Mutombo wants a ring, the smart move will be to play for the celtics.

    Who fits RA now? :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Our 2 top players, Yao and T-Mac dont fit RA apparently

    Morey should find a coach to fit the Rox players

    Be honest guys, if you are Deke and Boston comes calling, you sign with them.

    I am hoping this is just a ploy from Deke to give a hint to Morey to start getting on the phones and make the cap space for Deke.

    If we don't sign Deke it has nothing to do with Morey ...it's Leslie. We have an extra roster spot right now ...why would Morey leave it empty? Because Leslie said he doesn't want to spent the $$$.

    Yea...sign with the Rockets if you don't want a ring. lol.

    I don't see anyone but Boston winning it all this season. Does anybody see anything other than a Boston vs. LA finals this year with Boston winning it all (that is...barring any major injuries that hit either team)?

    If that is not the outcome to this season, then color me awfully surprised. The only thing left that interests me is whether the Rockets get past the first round this time.
