We still will have the bi annual exception (LLE), our friend Matthew D Hume, posted on twitter that Danny wanted to get Daniels via S&T so he could sign someone else with the LLE. Here's his post.
"Danny Definitely Wants S&T Rather Than Losing His Bi-Annual Exception. He Wants to Offer it to one of the Following, B.Wallace, J.Smith,"
And
Continuing Last Update: Gooden, Kleiza, Felton, J.Williams, Odom, Iverson, Stackhouse, Arroyo, Sessions, Diogu, A.Miller and Barnes"

This guy seems like he does know rumors even though I believe this list is an older list that recently has been passed on to him (Barnes has already signed). Let me know who you would like to sign if we do the S&T for Daniels and who you think we will sign

Top of the wish list is Odom, who we probably will sign is Arroyo.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Don't want Odom (he'll spit at an LLE offer anyways). Would like Ben Wallace for the LLE, it's one of the few out there that I think would take the offer and be worth it. Arroyo I wouldn't mind, but I think he would have to take a vet minimum offer.

Why do you think he knows rumors?

There are literally about 500 people who could make up rumors "linking" the Celtics to certain names if they were so inclined.

I mean, he literally says the Celtics are looking into every player on the market, and when one of them signs, he's the first one to take credit.

Example:


Quote
The Marquis Daniels/Pacers--Celtics Talks I Have Hinted at Since June 21st Here on Twitter and Facebook Are Close To Reaching Climax!

Quote from: Post from June 20th (rather than the 21st)
Sources: Ainge #44 is Communicating w/ Det, Pho, Ind, Cha, LAC, Mem, OC, Sac, Was, Min, NJ, GS, Mil, Tor, Cle, Mia, Hou, Dal, Atl, Chi, Por.

So, assuming that that's the tweet he's talking about (as there were no tweets on June 21st), he's claiming credit for calling the Daniels signing by listing Indiana as one of 21 teams the Celtics were talking to?!?

It cracks me up that he says that Danny wants to use the LLE on Lamar Odom, Ramon Sessions, Linas Kleiza, Andre Miller, etc.  Those players are all going to make way more than $1.9 million next season.

Yeah, Hume's a joke.

"The Celtics are looking into signing somebody who is eligible to be signed this off-season with whatever money they have available to sign somebody with."

Geeze, what a rumor.
Never forget the Champs of '08, or the gutsy warriors of '10.

Big Ben over Big Baby.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

Why would we want joe Smith or Big Ben? Big Baby would be much better then either of those guys? I really hope we keep Big Baby and not go after one of those old guys

BBD > Joe Smith at this point in time.  It all depends on what BBD gets offered but if its under 4M, I think Ainge matches.
