if chris paul rumors begin to circulate again i will blow up the garden

Whoa Whoa lets not go all Akkroyd Celtic Pride style Mr. Doom but ya i feel your pain. Im ready for all the speculation to end too. I just hope for the best possible result for the C's. Im not convinced anymore its CP.

Drug test?

WALTHAM — Jeff Green remains unable to practice with the Boston Celtics after the C's "found something" in his physical.

Danny Ainge, Boston's president of basketball operations, declined to say what the team discovered that warranted keeping him off the floor.

"We anticipate he'll be here soon in practice," Ainge said. "He's going through the tests again today and tomorrow, and he should be fine."

When asked whether it was an ankle or knee injury, Ainge responded, "I'm not going to tell you what it is."

He was later asked whether the injury would jeopardize the 1-year deal Green recently signed that's reportedly worth $9 million.

"No, no, no," Ainge said. "We're not even close to that. It's just precautionary. Practice just started today really, when we had our whole team here. It'll be resolved this week."

update: just saw this posted by sherrod on csnne.com

hmmm

That doesn't sound too worrying. Good news (relatively speaking), I guess.

[snively]

Drug test?

Is that part of the physical? 

Sincerely hope there's nothing serious enough to call off the deal.  We're not really in a position to replace Green if there is something physically wrong (as anything serious would also affect is sign & trade value).

It would be just like this offseason if Dell Demps called Danny to tell him he's ready to resume CP3 talks.

Drug test is very good thinking. TP, Eris, you detective you.

Could be related to the stalled Paul talks.

I don't believe this has anything to with CP.  However, count me among those who'd be ecstatic if we end up with him.

i wouldnt because our team will be trash next year with jujuan johnson the only one left on our roster. you think our team cant compete now wait till next year when we have no draft picks and no core

He has a tattoo of Brian Scalabrine on his right buttock...  Celtics were taken aback a bit by this, but after more psychological tests he should be fine.

Mark Blount...  Danny is holding him out of practice just to make sure all is well.

(With the disappointments of the last couple days and now this news of Green, of which we're not certain of what this is, I thought a touch of levity would help liven the spirits!).
