His defense was tremendous tonight. Kept us in the game.

I would prefer Singleton over Scalabrine for that role but Scal is a good option too.

Truthfully, he's a fine player for the vet minimum, but he may have more value with a non-guaranteed deal sign-and-trade, with a buyout clause pre-negotiated in the contract.

Then come back for the minimum to play with Joe Johnson (dream...).

No thanks...  Five years of him was enough for me.  He offers nothing, and the only reason he suited up was due to Perk's injury.  He does nothing of value on the floor, and I'm not into signing a guy just because he's nice...

He stepped in last night, having not played in a long time, and provide a short burst of good defense.


That is what you need at the end of the bench.

He's been more than serviceable and has had some great games.

Hell, I bet he's shooting better than Ray Allen right now.

If Ainge thinks the team has one more run, Scal gets resigned.

wdleehi is absolutely right.  Amazing how sharp Scal was after so much time out of uniform.

That is what you need at the end of the bench.

You need to pay somebody to man that end of the bench spot who won't play anyways.  We're gonna spend the vet. min on somebody (which the league reimburses in part).  So why not have it be Scal?  He's great for team chemistry and that's basically all you're gonna get out of your 15th man except somebody who can step up and be serviceable when a key injury goes down.  Oh, Scal showed he can do that too.

We need to have a guy or two sitting at the end of the bench which can be DEVELOPED.  This is a critical time in the life of this franchise. 

At the very least, Scal WAITS for any kind of contract offer.  I bet nobody signs him, but if they do I don't get in a bidding war for him.  If he's sitting around with nowhere to go come camp then I guess I'd relent and offer him a couple bucks to return...

Yeah. Scal woudl be wayyyyy down the list on priorites. If the team is filled out towards the end of the summer, Scal could be signed for the minimum as a 15th man/insurance.

I think Scal ought to inherit Ty Lue's spot on the end of the bench: the assistant coach/emergency player option.

Kinda like Kevin Millar's role while he was with the Red Sox. People liked him but he didn't do a whole lot for the team in terms of production. And because he didn't produce, I didn't care for him. Don't care for Scal either. Let him go!
