Do you think someone could give us 10 meaningful minutes a night and actually would for very little money and a shot at a ring?

Can John Stockton still play?

Arvydas Sabonis? Probably not, but I figure he's younger than Dikembe who was born in the year of the drought, approximately 65 seasons ago.

Do you think Trajon Langdon could play better than Giddens?

Corliss Williamson?

Do you think George Zidek has been playing well in Europe for a decade and is in great shape?

Karl Malone?

Latrell Spreewell?

The more I think about this the more depressing the list gets.

I'd give Diani Taurasi a try out.

Someone from another sport? Mike Vick perhaps?

I'd take Magic out of retirement just for the FU factor. Seeing him get a ring, especially against the Lakers would be worth ... I don't know what it would be worth, but it would be a definite top 100 Boston sports moment

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Yes... He is... and I would love to have him back... but if he wanted to come back he would have done so last year.

I say get Larry Bird.  He should be at least as good as we had last year backing up Pierce.

About Bonzi Wells...he used to play with Rasheed, and he actually wasn't terrible in the last season he played in the NBA...might be worth considering.
