So I would assume they arent pursuing Dwight anymore?

still could.

They may be signing Nene to use him in the Howard trade.

And if that falls through, at least they would have Nene and Lopez down low with D will at point.

pretty decent

In addition, the Celtics are pursuing Chris Wilcox, a journeyman big man who played with Detroit last season. The team is also finalizing a trade for Bucks guard Keyon Dooling and a second round draft pick. The Cs will only trade the rights to Albert Miralles - a player they have held the rights to for the last five years. Boston Herald

Interesting............

I bet he goes unclaimed.

I bet he goes unclaimed.

Yeah he will with that salary. He needs to be on a team that will let him shoot like Washington did. Well until he got he got hurt and Caron Butler took over his role. He could probably be used well off the bench in a Jamal Crawford type role. But he still wants to start.

Billups is going to the Heat. Book it

 

[Axl Rose]

wouldnt mind billups off the bench at all

i doubt he makes it off waviers tho hes still a solid player

 

[Uman85]

Billups is going to the Heat. Book it

Yep. I've lost all respect for any player that goes to the Heat. Not that I had much respect for most of them in the first place.

 

[DCguy]

The Knicks need Tyson Chandler, but I doubt he could replicate what he did for the Mavericks. That was like a perfect storm to me. Getting rid of a veteran floor general in D'Antoni's offense will hurt them. Billups will be greatly missed there. Chandler won't be able to make up for that loss.

Teams have 48 Hours to put a waiver claim in... It'll be interesting to see what happens over the weekend
