Nate on Sheed

[Bankshot]

SLAM: After game seven of the Finals, Kevin Garnett said that Rasheed Wallace came into the locker room and gave his thanks and regards and that it was very emotional.
NR: It was. Sheed is one of my all-time favorites, regardless of the techs. He speaks his mind and that is what I love about him. I have so much respect for him because if something isn’t right, he will let you know. He’s like that all the time. That was the one person who I would look to for advice and he always gave me his honest opinion whether I liked it or not. As a player he worked everyday. He came in and shot early, leave late. The main thing about him is he wanted to win. He has a ring but wanted to go out with a bang. We tried to go out with a championship but unfortunately we didn’t. The speech that he gave, saying stuff like he wouldn’t of had it any other way besides going to war with the guys that were in that locker room with us. It touched everybody. We were heartbroken that we didn’t win it for him. Of course I wanted to win my first championship but I wanted to win because I have looked up to Sheed since college. I played against his AAU team in Philly. My mom used to do his wife’s hair—my mom is a hair stylist. So I’ve known Sheed for a while, since I was real young. Playing alongside him was awesome. It was a dream come true. I just wish the tables were turned and we would have won that championship because I honestly believe if we would have won, Sheed would have played another year. One more year with Sheed.

 

Here's the rest of the interview.

One more year with Sheed.

Imagine all the materiel Sheed going to provide about the New Heat. Sheed Punkin Chris Bosh+company would be so entertaining.     One more Year!

I have a sneaky suspicion Sheed's not done yet.

That come January or Februrary (depending on the health of our bigs(or maybe not even)) he will be back in a C's uni.

I hope you're right.

I don't want to pay money for someone who might or might not come back. He makes way too much.

Then you're all set. You don't pay that money. The Celtics owners do.

The only draw-back that I can think of, from paying him to maybe come back for a half-season, is that it sends the wrong message and could be taken as a sign of weakness from ownership (which is a stretch IMO).

Aside from that, so long as it doesn't prevent us from acquiring an impact player (which I don't think it will), I have no issue with Wyc paying him his money.

Sure he's overpaid.  But not if he helps us win another chip.

Although Sheed can at times seem like a major slouch
He really is an underrated Winner/Teammate
Hes won a championship, and his blazers/ pistons teams went to the conference finals 8 times, his teams win and usually make it far and all his teammates love him

That's great! ****!

[KG_ended_Bias]

If we could get Shaq at the minimum and get Sheed back after All-Star break. I honestly believe we will be cutting down nets in 2011. You win from inside to out!

[footey]

I am convinced that the best value we will ever get for Sheed's contract is Sheed.  I really hope the guys can talk him into coming back.  KG has the best chance I would think.

5 TP's awarded for an awesome find Bankshot.

[alley oop]

It was so neat to see him “pulling the rug out” from under Gasol. Who else in the league has done that to him? The problem, once time at least, was it worked so good an official thought he had fouled him.
