It seems the green squad have a new big man. A little raw, IMO, but a center anyway.

Pfff... I dont trust in him. I've seen a lot matchs of him here in Europe and I think he´s not gonna adapt to the NBA.

That looks like a sketchy source. I guess we'll find out in time.

He looks to be  tall stiff. His numbers in europe over the few years are unimpressive.

If he can make the team and be better than williams I would be happy.

But unless he suddenly doubles his points and rebounding numbers, or is a defensive monster, he isn't going to do much on the celtics.

Another tall body,

what a relief! no more worrying about perkins' knee or shoulder. Danny can take the rest of the offseason off and we can all sit back and relax. Hello Semih! :)

Looking at some highlights he appears to be a little more than a stiff. Still raw but intriguing.

Danny mentioned him in his WEEI interview yesterday, so he may be in their plans.  Not excited by the fact that he's 23.  I believe he was a 2nd round pick so would they have him for 2 years tops?

I was going to make a "semih" joke about how exciting this news was. I guess I sort of did.

I second that.  Even Shelden with a couple of inches would be good enough, but I want to see what he can develop into over here.
