Imagine the effort if we pair him with Rasheed!

Rasheed is busy getting Perk sick. Go pair him up with someone else.

When I saw the author of this thread, I figured there would be some amusement involved.

As is so often the case, well played, guava.

Personally, I think a Blount-Mikki frontcout pairing would be the way to go: the perfect match of a potentially talented player who doesn't seem to care versus a player who can't seem to do much right but cares about it plenty.

KG-Blount making a comeback maybe?

Seems so long ago, but was Danny the GM who gave Blount the big contract after the bum played hard for the last two months of his contract year? Terrible signing and very predictable results. And yes, I thought so at the time- it was exactly what good old Pervis Ellison used to do- play hard for a couple of months, get a nice contract, then loaf for a few years.
But I'm sure Mr. Blount is laughing all the way to the bank.

The tough thing about Blount is that he didn't play hard for a couple months.  He played hard for several years, in two separate terms with the C's.  The issue is that he had developed his offensive game dramatically in those two months, and then was given regular playing time because the rest of the team was so terrible.

I agree that there was plenty of reason to believe he was not going to be worth the contract, however, I don't think there was any evidence to suggest he would become the complete Dog that he did.

I've got it: The Scales that Saved Boston

Our struggling professional basketball team, The Boston Celtics, whose continuous losing streak and lack of talent has made them the laughing stock of Boston. This results in several players asking to go elsewhere in the league, except for the star player, Paul Pierce mostly because he is the highest paid player on the team and is not liked by the teammates.

Sensing that the team really needs a miracle, the team's ball and waterboy Tyrone Millman decides to turn to his favorite hobby, astrology, as a way to turn around the team's fortunes. He brings his idea to an astrologer named Mona Mondieu and they come up with the perfect concept: A team composed of players who were born under the astrological sign of Libra (matching the star sign of Paul Pierce), thus the 'birth' of "The Boston Libras!"

Although Paul and Tyrone's sister Toby (for whom Paul had feelings) thinks that Tyrone's idea means he out of his mind, they warm up to the concept, not knowing that this 'concept' would really take off due to an unlikely group of mismatched players, whose combination of teamwork and astrology from Mona would pay off as they went from laughingstocks to a powerhouse to reckon with on the road to the league championship.

- Danny, make this happen

Patrick O'Bryant as the third big would be a perfect three man front court rotation

A potentially talented player who doesn't seem to care versus a player who can't seem to do much right but cares about it plenty complimented by a potentially talentless player that may or may not care
