Hinrich would be the new Token White Guy

[Bosstown]

If we did get Hinrich, he'd be the first white guy on the Celtics to play significant minutes for a championship contender since dare i say...BIRD! 

Sorry Scal the fans of Southy have a new guy to identify with.

I have to agree with Simmons on this one... his twitter today: "Can't digest any Ray Allen trade rumor that doesn't land Ellis, Martin, Iggy or Deng somehow. Anything else is slumming it."

I agree, but i think it's unrealistic that teams are jumping at the bit to unload arguably better players for ray allens expiring deal alone.

Believe it when i see it.

He finally posted something that made sense.  Although to be honest there are quite a few other players that wouldn't be slumming it when it comes to ray of 2010.

I agree with you. There is no history of teams giving up good talent for just an expiring contract. However, with this free agency class there is a 1st for everything.

People of pallor are vastly underrepresented in the NBA.  The discrimination must end.

A sadly novel idea.  Alas, well said.
