Should the C's dip their toes in?

After reading that. No way! Seems like a head case.

[Ogaju]

Will not fit the ‘type of player’ Celtics are looking for.

[hpantazo]

I can't see Stevens and Ainge bringing in someone with character issues.

If we make a minor trade for someone, it will likely be PJ Tucker.

Sources said Porter, whose locker was moved to the wall where the younger, end-of-bench players reside, began yelling and at one point threw food.

    Sources said general manager Koby Altman came into the locker room and confronted Porter, and the player remained combative with his boss.

Porter, 20, has not played this season for personal reasons. He was involved in a one-car accident in November and charged with “improperly handling firearms in a motor vehicle, transport loaded firearm in a motor vehicle accessible to operator or any passenger without leaving the vehicle.”

Those charges were dismissed. Days later two women filed a police report saying they were attacked by Porter in an incident unrelated to the car accident.

Here is hoping he gets traded to the Nets. I have a feeling him and Kyrie and Harden and Durant would gel perfectly.

“The argument kept escalating and Porter was heard yelling about ‘modern-day slavery,'” Davies wrote. “Porter had grown frustrated recently because the team had been holding him out. He has yet to play in a game this season.

“‘He snapped on Koby, and Koby snapped back,’ the source told BasketballNews.com. ‘Ultimately, I think Koby being unable to calm him was the last straw that broke the camel’s back.’

“The source said that Porter is not allowed back at Cleveland Clinic Courts at the moment. The Cavaliers will try to find a trade for Porter, potentially packaging the second-year swingman with a big man.”

They want to attach him to a big man to help with their center log jam.

Modern day slavery = getting paid to sit on the bench?
