Nate to Celtics Official / Danny's take (merged Nate threads)

Uh-oh?

I'm hearing Shelden Williams might be in the Knicks deal instead of Billy Walker.

Feeling so much better right now if this is true.

Agreed. Either way I am interested to see who we use to fill out our two roster spots.

Yesss Bill Walker probably staying

I don't get it

Walker at least has the athletic ability that causes people to dream of him being a good player.

Shelden has done nothing in the league and other than the very start of the season done nothing for us. Plus he went to duke so in all likelihood he worships the devil (not the blue kind).

Shelden is kind of terrible.  Walker is as well, so it's pretty much a wash, but I think Walker still has more potential to help at some point.

Williams > Walker. This has been pretty obvious over the course of the season.

    Though the Celtics haven’t acknowledged that their trade for Nate Robinson is complete, a team source just confirmed that Eddie House has left the team in Los Angeles, presumably to join the Knicks.

    J.R. Giddens, back in Boston recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery, is expected to join House as part of the trade. Robinson has also left the Knicks. His locker in Madison Square Garden had been cleaned out prior to New York’s game against Chicago Wednesday night.

SInce the deal isn't official yet, I'm going to sit here hoping that Tony Douglas is the second player coming over...maybe even if we had to include a first rounder for that.

Wow, what an update.

It's not excitement. Walker is locked in for another couple of years on a cheap contract. Dealing him away, when he ought to compete for rotation minutes next season, isn't a smart move.

Could be Shelden Williams instead of Bill Walker in the Nate/BOS deal. Williams gives Knicks size. Also a Tellem client!

Lol, this is hilarious... no one knows!!!

Because Walker has bum knees, has never been a contributor on an NBA team, and plays a position that's traditionally hard to staff in the NBA, of course...

I seriously doubt Bill Walker is a part of this team next year

The C's own two draft picks next year and I think they clean house of the young talent(Walker) and start over with new young talent in the form of those two picks

Still no official word. All signs point to C's sending E-House, J.R. Giddens and Billy Walker to NYC for Nate Robinson and Marcus Landry.

And now sherrodb saying Walker... can someone make up his mind?

We have two firsts or a first and a second?
