Thanks, Anfernee, I enjoyed your time as a Celtic.  You scored, you bought in, and helped the team.  I for one, will miss you.

Would have loved to have kept him as the 6th man next year but Boston made the right move getting a big. Simons will sign a big deal with someone.

I very much enjoyed watching him play.  I think his time here will do a lot for his future. 
Yup

He did a good job. He helped this team to its current record, winning a few games almost by himself with his shooting.

I think Mazz helped him too. He's a much better defender than he was. He competed and really was a part of a solid defense.

I'll cheer for him moving forward, whether that is in Chicago or elsewhere.

Thanks Anfernee!

He definitely helped the Celtics get some wins, so I appreciate that. Never felt like he was going to be here long term, though. Brad doesn?t typically like having undersized players since they are a defensive liability, especially in the postseason. Prichard is an exception to that rule since he does so many other things well.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Really appreciated him buying into the team.  I hope he gives the Bulls a jolt in their first-round series against Detroit.

We all knew he could score. He tried on D here. Thats all I asked. I genuinely think he improved his league wide value here. Hes a good player.

Thanks for everything Anferno

Definitely will miss him coming off the bench. Really liked him and thought he was doing pretty well defensively. Thanks Anfernee! Hope we get you back someday.

I liked Anferno's game, especially when he was on fire.  I thought his defense improved during the season and I thought he put a lot of effort into improving his game.  I'll miss him, he was an exciting player.

Hope he gets himself a fat long-term contract somewhere and gets a chance to put down roots.  By all accounts he's a great community guy who gives back.  Wish him the best.

Hope he starts and gets paid. He really played well for us  Sucks the cap means so much to this organization now.

Loved watching him on offense -- a natural-born scorer who could hurt the opposition in so many ways. There aren't a lot of guys like this, so I'm bummed to see him go -- especially since he had a good attitude and bought in and tried hard on D -- but Vuc brings some good things to the table.

Fare thee well, Anferno!
