Again, a complementary player to Eddie House.  Good ball handler and passer with size.  His shot is a little inconsistent to pair with Daniels, but he might be a good fit at the minimum.

I guess Delfino could complement House in some way, but I wouldn't say he's that good a passer. He's averaging 1.2 assists in his NBA career as well as .356 from the 3pt line.

He's a pretty decent defender as well, but I don't see why the Celtics would sign him at this point, considering they've already got Daniels locked, and perhaps want to give Walker and Giddens a go.

Secondly, he's getting paid a lot of money in Europe, while he'd only get the Vets minimum here. Not going to happen.

Delfino is also a restricted FA, so Toronto can match any offer...and at the minimum they would definitely match it.

And like shots said, Delfino can get a lot more money in Europe, so there is zero chance he signs for the vet minimum in the NBA...
