Mike James may be available.

Now would you like to see him back in a celts uniform?

before he went to Toronto and became crazy and thought of himself as a star player, he was a very very effective role player.

I wish he hadn't gone crazy but he's not even close to as crazy as Marbury, he fits alot of criteria of a backup pg that we need, he's a lights out 3 point shooter(although numbers dont back it up from past few seasons, i believe he still is), good defender. I didn't seem him play at all last year, not sure if he lost a step or anything but it seems all mental with him. Has experience with KG. He has shown ability to attack the basket as well.


Now I have no link to this rumour because it's pure speculation. yeahh...I think he'll want out of washington and washington will be glad to save a few bucks by buying him out. Seems like a no-brainer decision. Washington is too deep with Gilbert, Foye, Crittenton at pg....

He's kind of got a big contract for the limited role he'd play. I believe it's expiring, but I don't see an incentive other than to clear a roster spot. Hopefully our own expirings will fetch something before the deadline.. Something a little more than Mike James.

If he was released, though I'd be all over him.

The thing is, with Eddie as main back up for the 1-2 positions, you don´t need another shooter and Mike James´strength is his shot and his ability to create it. In case we signed someone else, I think it would be more suitable to get a more classical PG, a distributor and ball handler. James has always been more a shoot first guy, and at his age I doubt he will change dramatically.

  Isn't Mike James always available?

Eddie House is a better point guard than Mike James.

[footey]

no thanks.

[pearljammer10]

We need a back up three to play the wing position. No more point guard talk...Especially bad point guard talk.

beat me to it

[jayk009]

there are reports that he is playing very very well in camp and that he is looking young again..

OO and I don't think the Celtics should trade for him, but if he was ever bought out....

[the_Bird]

Let me guess...  those reports coming from either the team that's looking to unload him, or perhaps his agent?

Mike James, the homeless man's Iverson.
