For sure an upgrade over BBD. 

You can't look at a highlight reel and use it to call him better than BBD.  Highlight reels are made from good plays, not bad ones.  Patrick O'Bryant even looks good in a highlight reel, that's how little that means.

Yeah they don't make highlights of people missing.  And he is a better offensive player than BBD and is WAY more athletic.  He is for sure a player that benefits from playing on a good team with good players, i.e. when he played with Jason Kidd.  He'd be a good fit here, but I don't think he, or Joe Smith is the answer to helping us out.

Various sources are reporting that he's already been waived, but that still means we won't know anything for a month, right?

The Celtics, or any team other than the Kings, can sign him after he clears waivers, which takes 48 hours, I believe.  If for some odd reason he wanted to go back to Sacramento, he would have to wait 30 days.

Thanks for the clarification, oh guru of all NBA contract/trade rules!  :)

For sure an upgrade over BBD on offense.

 :o I am in awe right now... I just watched that whole video... and I was thinking to myself wow I've heard this song before (A friend of mine made a video of a bunch of my friends and I playing basketball). Sure enough when it got to the end of the video I saw two things (LilPharmacist, and StroShow) and I know that the Mikki Moore video happens to be made by my friend... small world.

TP for the video.

Here is one of his videos he made of us playing a couple of years ago... I'm the one who dunks like 30 seconds in (The hoop is at 8 ft.)

The Celtics have been in contact with the rep for Mikki Moore, who has been waived by Sacramento. But he is not at the top of their list of potential big man signees.

That video actually made Mikki look decent...But I seem to distinctly remember him sucking.

As far as i know we only have 2 available roster spots. I really hope that Danny doesnt waste one on this guy.

He's worth reaching out to, though.  There is no guarantee that Joe Smith gets bought out...

Even if Joe Smith doesnt get bought out, which i think is highly unlikely, I dont want Mikki Moore. Does he even have any playoff experience?

Good point -- I don't think so.  But do you agree the Celtics need to sign another big man?  The options are pretty limited if so.
