I'm not convinced Rajon Rondo is a good fit for team chemistry. Doesn't mean we can't use him. Same thing with birdman.

I think you might be in the running for Understatement of the Year with that observation.

Didn't he get caught with Child**** recently?

NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXXT !!

From what I've seen I think that was a crazy fan who tried to set him up, that's why nothing really came of it. 

I'd like to have him for the vet min, especially if Stiemsma is gone and he is arguably the best left on the table...

Why would Chris Andersen be bad for team chemistry?

I thought he was a hugely popular in the locker room in both New Orleans and in Denver. A very well-liked guy. Great energy and very supportive of his teammates.

Do I have that wrong? I am getting C.Andersen confused with someone else?

TP... I haven't heard anything bad between him and anyone. Looks like when he is out there he goes as hard as you could ask. Maybe people have heard different...

The Celtics team anno 2012 is quite boring. Serious guys playing serious basketball. Birdman brings a bit of color to the team.

But Birdman isn't a high flyer anymore. He really brings nothing to the table, that Stiemsma doesn't bring more of.

I would rather take a chance with Jon Leuer, who had some pretty good games for the Bucks last season. He just got waived by the Rockets.

Big angry aggressive shot blocker. I love this dude. His most recent neck tattoos look horrible, though.

Maybe guys liked him, but he seems like a bit of a powder keg to me.  I'm not going to convict him in the court of public opinion on this recent scandal that he's been embroiled in, but that is the kind of thing that I'd rather just avoid.  

Basically, I don't think he brings enough game anymore to go with his larger than life personality.  I'm all set with the Birdman.

the Birdman always plays hard blocks shots and runs the floor, he doesn't exactly help our rebounding problem but he will give us the energy required for any big that plays in our system.

I tend to lean towards the suspicions out there that Delonte West did not return to the team last season because he was considered by Ainge to be a disruptive force behind the scenes.  I need someone to convince me that won't be the case with Andersen.

I suppose I should also point out that he is old and injury-prone, having played 45 and 32 games in the past two seasons.

I just don't want to bring anymore old, often injured bigs onto our team.  He was ok a few years ago, but he is def at the end of his career and I just don't see him helping that much.

Would much rather have the Steamer if all things are equal, and I am sure they aren't.
