Celtics signs Barbosa to a one-year deal

[Kang Deezy]

barbosa is no pg either. he plays the same way as terry. undersized 2 guard.

But it takes Terry off the ball at least.

 

[VegetasHairline]

Barbosa isn't going to solve their backup point gurd issues.

 

[AAKing23]

Like they needed to get deeper

 

[VegetasHairline]

It's a wrap.. Ainge got something huge at the trade deadline planned, I can see it now..

Josh Smith for Bass + Fab Melo and some picks

Garnett, Milicic, Collins
Josh Smith, Sullinger
Pierce, Green, Joseph
Bradley, Lee, Terry
Rondo, Barbosa

That's not gonna get you Josh Smith. Keep your 2K trade ideas to yourself breh.

People are acting like Barbosa is going to be a 6th man or something. The Celtics already have the defense, Barbosa is just there to be a spot shooter off the bench in limited minutes, and just to provide another set of legs off the bench, it's a very good pickup. If he can give 8-10 pts a game they're good plus dudes a career 40% shooter from 3, not too shabby.

Yeah, just like Afflalo, Harrington, Harkless and Vucevic don't get you Dwight Howard

this the NBA fool, any damn trade can happen.

you guys already have enough guards.
between Rondo, Lee, Terry and Bradley you had a solid rotation. adding barbosa just means there won't be enough minutes to go around.

I always liked Barbosa.....there was a time when I thought he was the quickest dude in the league, but he's fell off some in that regard.



He can still come off the bench and light you up for 30 on any given night.




His IQ is below average, though


Game can be real reckless at times....most of the time, actually.



But when he's on

 

[DoubleClutch]

Jeff Green looking really good too. People are sleeping on him.

Yea, he been impressive. I think Celtics know the need some youth and speed to match their bigs and half court game. Cause against these younger athletic teams (philly) during the preseason Boston was looking

Plus, it seems like Rondo wants to play at a quicker pace this year so his guards gotta keep up.

Terrys been looking

 

[aliG]

i thought he was coming to the Lakers.. guess not...

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

All it takes is one injury to shift the power of the conference. I like the move, adds some depth.. but I won't say anything more than that. He's out of control, bit of an idiot.. I don't want to see him playing key minutes.

But back to the Heat. Wade is injury prone as much as any Celtic.

 

[Brock Landers]

Good pick up, dude is incredibly fast and can help on both the defensive and offensive end. I'm still quietly confident about the C's chances , Ainge has made some really great moves to give us the best possible shot at going all the way.

 

[Alexander The Great]

He can't save you.

like something Bane would say to Batman
