1st round pick for Kaman? smh.....

A second round maybe but not for 1st

Just a 2nd rounder for a solid Center who's averagin 15 points and 9 rebounds in the last 10 games (albeit at 41% shooting, but he's the first option right now), fairly young (30), and an expiring deal? SMH.

He's worth a first round.

You forgot that he said JO + 1st rounder

I'd rather take the risk on the draft. Being in the lottery is being bound to happen. Kaman isn't going to help us this year. Just wait for the free agency and see what we can get there. This offseason, we will have plenty of cap space so we might match offers for some above-average players.

He is not worth a first rounder to us. How is 30 young at all for a team that is rebuilding like we are?

Regarding the thread title... on a roll? Huh? One in a row qualifies as being on a roll?

When we are eliminated in the 1st round of the playoffs, I would rather be able to look forward to the draft with our 2 picks than to look forward to year two of Kaman in Boston.

I do agree - a first round draft pick is more valuable than Kaman for the Celtics; however there wouldn't be a year two in Boston for him anyway, as his contract expires at the end of the season.

No way.  Chris Kaman's not that good, and I don't think he'd be a particularly good fit in Boston.

the man is averaging 12 and 8...he would be a great fit in boston

We aren't in dire need of a defensively poor, jump shooting, injury prone center.

we're in dire need of anybody who can play the center position.

kaman was an all-star a couple years ago.

he's definitely not worth the cost we'd have to give up to get him, but i'm just sayin -- if the celtics got kaman for free somehow, i wouldn't complain.

I wouldn't complain either if we got him for free.
