I guess I can warm up to it. Worse signings could be made, he fills a need and kind of cool to have him back. At the pricetag we got him for he's really a bargain too. I just don't usually like the idea of filling the roster with filler. Green is pretty young has improved over the years and is not a bad player.
Both he and Zeller make sense. Wasn't a huge fan of the marbury or shaq signings by ainge and this has that same feeling to it. I guess it's what it leads to.
We should have brought Marbury back for 09-10, imo. He would have been yuge off of the bench, but I'm probably alone in that view, lol .
From what I remember, Marbury didn't want to come back. Didn't he have a beef with Pierce?
I don't remember anything like that. Our guys loved him when he was there, iirc (there was a quote about it but I doubt that I could find it, now, unfortunately
). I just wish that he had been our Vinnie Johnson/Mark Aguirre, that year. All that we would have needed to do would have been trading Eddie House, in order to give Steph all of the minutes at either spot. At the very least, he showed that he could essentially get off a bus and run a team, lol
. Sigh. I also never understood why we didn't sign Jerry Stackhouse nor Joe Smith, which was made worse by our signing of Shelden Williams
*facepalm*. Just, why, lol
? Smith would have been perfect for us, imo. He could post up, hit the midrange shot, rebound on both ends, and did all of the Christina Aguilera work
. Plus, he had intimate knowledge of the Cavs, we saw what he could do for Cleveland in the 2008 and 2009 playoffs, and he always seemed to play well against the Lakers, iirc. Maybe I should make a 'why did we ever sign Shelden Williams?' thread, or maybe not, lol
