Remember to start the answer with the word Buy or Sell.

As Just reported on Espn the celts interested. We targeted him as a FA in 2004 after they one there title.

And he's upset with the Pistons because of the trade.

So what do you think, Like the fit and possibility of Antonio wearing green?

I would buy it.  He'd definitely be a good fit for the Celts.  But I'm hoping that he doesn't get bought out at all and stays in Denver.  Because if he does get bought out, I'd say there's about a 99% chance he goes back to Detroit.

I buy the idea of the Celtics going after McDyess, hard.

I sell the idea of him agreeing to sign here, rather than Detroit.

I'd definitely buy but as Roy hinted at, I don't think it's likely.

I'd like to be wrong, though.

Definitely Buy.

He's in that PJ Brown type of mold. Solid Vet who knows his role and will give you a solid 10-15 minutes. Seems like he be a great locker room guy as well. Celts need to win now. I'd welcome Dice man aboard.

I'd buy him twice just to make sure. He'd be perfect.

buy the celtics go hard after him, would be a solid player of the bench, maybe the best available big to come of the bench.
but like u guys said, i doubt he would come here over detroit even though it makes more sense for him, being that i feel we have the better team and better shot at a title

Co-sign.

It's tantalizing to think of what a great acquisition he would be for this team.  A presence both on the defensive end and some added scoring punch in the frontcourt...another locker room leader...classy professional...big part of a rival....

Buy the idea but what happens to Leon if McDyess comes aboard. Could he become trade bait?

i think baby would be trade bait honestly, mcdyess is big enough to play the 5 in stretechs with perk out. thats what i want him for.
