Big Baby update. Dallas has entered into the mix along Det, NY, SA and Memphis. My gut tells me Baby is gone because of money.

I think BBD is gone too, my guess would be to NY because every other free agent is turning them down .

well in all fairness he was the 1st one to break that story, and it still has a good chance of happening .

well boston can sit back and see what is offered. they will have 7 days to match...if it is too much they will take and use that money for someone else..i still think baby stays

My gut tells me that no one is going to offer him the MLE and he will be back with the Celtics.

I think the Knicks will, if they offered it to Grant Hill, why wouldn't they for a young PF with potential ?

I don't think Tanguay knows what a restricted free-agent means.

probably doesn't, but I don't think BBD is coming back if someone offers him 4MIL+ UNLESS we miss out on Rasheed.

They'd have to offer him more than that.  I think Ainge will match $4mil.

but wouldn't be 8 MIL with the luxury tax? I just think the C's would try to sign someone like Wilcox, Diogu or McDyess with the LLE ( 2 MIL) if they are able to sign Rasheed with the MLE. Because if we have Rasheed he will be playing both the PF and C positions , which leaves very little time for BBD .

I say it would be dumb by Celtics management if they don't match just about any offer for him out there. Unless he gets a ridiculous offer, and I mean very ridiculous, I don't envision much of a scenario in which his contract would hurt us much more than it would help us. Unless Ainge has some more economical talented options in mind.

I thought the luxury tax didn't come into play when re-signing your own players?  But what do I know.

oh I am not sure if it does either, just assumed it did. Does anyone know?

If they are going to offer the MLE to Davis, why not just use similar money and resign Bass?
