Celtics fans can come to this thread and help each other through this. Probably if they sign Ariza too.
steve g - 7/2/09, 11:56 am
lebron, artest, ariza, shaq

...oof
lucasp - 7/2/09, 11:56 am
i have faith in the Celtics, regardless of what the Cavs do. just need to be healthy.
Wes - 7/2/09, 11:57 am
with Mo Williams. Not sure they have the cash to sign Ariza AND Artest it'll probably be one or the other, but still.
steve g - 7/2/09, 11:58 am
im with you, lucas, but its like....they didnt win this year cause they had no one in the middle.

well....urp.
Danial - 7/2/09, 11:58 am
I just would hate to love any player on the cavs.
lucasp - 7/2/09, 12:05 pm
but shaq isn't what he used to be. it's a no-brainer for cleveland (since they gave up me, you, and tix to the ice capadades), but there's not guarantee shaq will be healthy all year. he's old. i think it will absolutely help them against some teams (orlando, notably), but doesn't mean they'll waltz to the finals. they didn't win this year against ORLANDO because they had nothing in the middle. Cs have been playing together and can hit the ground running, assuming everyone is recovered.

Cavs look good on paper, and i like the move, but we'll have to wait and see how it comes together.

i do like ron ron, but i already LOVE delonte. in the ECF i was rooting for the cleveland delontes.
Wes - 7/2/09, 12:07 pm
Delonte is like 1/4 the player of Ron Artest
Danial - 7/2/09, 12:08 pm
And 10x the herpes.
steve g - 7/2/09, 12:08 pm
sizest! racist!
Wes - 7/2/09, 12:08 pm
I like boozername on here more than you.
brokenfuses - 7/2/09, 12:09 pm
Either the Cavs or the Lakers are the rumors now.

Or he stays in Houston -- and basically goes down with the ship.
lucaslewis - 7/2/09, 12:09 pm
they didn't win this year because they had no one to defend in the middle, partly, but also largely because they played a different brand of offensive basketball than they had all season. lebron against the other team is fine in a tie game with 20 seconds to go, but it can't be your entire offensive strategy.
steve g - 7/2/09, 12:12 pm
kick back and drop the hate, wes.
lucasp - 7/2/09, 12:13 pm
i'm not talking about ability, i'm talking about love. and i love delonte. wire hanger. WIRE HANGAAAAAAAAH.

oof. i hope artest gets out of houston. they have the plague.

another agreement between the united Lucas front -- the Cavs went into a shell when things finally got difficult for them. hand the ball to lebron and look out. that shit doesn't work for very long. i'd never seen lebron look tired before, and he was absolutely gassed. can't win playing that way.
lucasp - 7/2/09, 4:18 pm
Reportedly Ron Ron is going to be a laker.
brokenfuses - 7/2/09, 6:35 pm
Artest to the Lakers!
brokenfuses - 7/2/09, 9:40 pm
I fucking called this by the way. You guys thought he was going to the Cavs.
lucasp - 7/3/09, 6:30 am
Did you call it in your post that said 'either the cavs or the lakers.......or houston'? Ha.

I wonder if Jackson thinks he's getting rodman 2. We will see if Ron can give the ball up to work in the triangle. Either way, he's a better player than ariza.
loveoneanother - 7/3/09, 7:42 am
i thought you spelled artist and caves wrong
evanparker - 7/3/09, 9:02 am
haha you celts fans are fucked now. lakers.
lucasp - 7/3/09, 9:30 am
We'll see about that.
evanparker - 7/3/09, 9:36 am
the question in my mind is, who the fuck picks up ariza now?
urbnsherpa - 7/3/09, 9:58 am
i read this as "artist goes to the caves"
lucasp - 7/3/09, 10:47 am
Ariza verbally committed to Houston.
Danial - 7/3/09, 1:07 pm
Yeah if we don't get sheed now we're toast. Even then were probably toast.
Huts - 7/3/09, 1:16 pm
I have been spending the 24 hours trying desperately to find, download, then YSI Artest's rap album. No luck.
lucasp - 7/3/09, 2:06 pm
Celtics are not toast, with or without sheed. As long as KG is healthy.
Danial - 7/3/09, 2:16 pm
The celtics without sheed are absolutely toast. Our bench is a heap of garbage besides eddie shooting threes.
lucasp - 7/3/09, 3:46 pm
I'll take the celtics starting five over anyone, and there is still plenty of time for the bench. We'll see what happens. If they add nothing, then I won't feel good about it, but they will add some guys.
lucasp - 7/4/09, 8:43 am
hedo - what a dick move! although the blazers threatened all other teams about signing darius miles, just so his salary wouldn't count towards their cap last year. that was a bigger dick move. still, you carlos boozered them just for the honor of playing for the raptors?
