Marquis looks to be coming back!

[CelticsFanNC]

  The Good: He knows the system well, and is versatile which could be beneficial in a compressed season

 The bad:  He seems to be made of glass

[Moreover]

It would be nice to have some wing players who can shoot the ball (from the perimeter).

What did Jeff Green shoot from 3 last year? 30%. Marquis Daniels, in his two years here, he was what? He was down around 20%, right? And Tony Allen, heck, he was just as bad as M.Daniels was.

I miss the days of James Posey and Eddie House knocking down jump shots consistently. Regardless of whether it's Rondo or Paul, it'd be nice if those guys had some (reserve) wings around them that stroke the ball from downtown.

Said differently, role players who can give the team adequate spacing offensively.

Yes. Especially if Rondo ends up staying.

But Daniels, if signed for the minimum salary, is a non-brainer. A very good player when healthy who already knows how the team plays.

I like Daniels on the bench.


Combine him with a player like Dunleavy, and the Celtics have role players that can cover what they need off the bench at the SG/SF spots.

Can do a lot worse than Marquis Daniels if he is recovered from injury. His old jersey numbers keep getting taken though!

[celticinorlando]

but is he healthy? To me..just too much of a risk

I'm happy wit it -- we need that energy on this roster

[Celts Fan 92]

Why bring this guy back? In 2 seasons with Boston he has not been able to play an entire season. He cannot be depended on and is a walking injury. I wish he would just retire and save us the trouble of having to watch him get hurt once again. What a waste of a roster spot


So far Boston has 2 guys that WILL miss a ton of games in JO and Daniels. I was hoping for someone that we could count on. But it seems we get this tomato can again.

harsh bruh i agree dude is injury prone but in a shortened season dude knows the system for the vet min solid signing

[Cman]

I have mixed feelings on this one. He is a productive bench player when he is healthy, but he is also an injury magnet.

Ditto

Ditto.
We have to fill 9 spots, for the vet min I have no problem bringing back Marquis to fill one.
