We do not have a center and do not want to commit big money to one. Why aren't we going after Fesenko?

The guy is not a world beater, but he is 7'1", huge, and has a 9'4" standing reach. Utah was 10 points per 100 posessions better with him on the court last season.

He is a blight offensively, but at this point, we need some bodies.

TP for outside the box thinking, but if I remember correctly he's not mobile at all. Might have something to do with the assumption that he wouldn't pick up the defensive schemes.

If nothing else, he provides much needed size and will give a hard foul for the vet min

He's supposedly recovered from the torn meniscus he suffered last fall.  Milwaukee, Miami, Chicago, and Atlanta are reported to have been pursuing him for about a month.  I have no idea why he was reported signed then not signed by Golden State.

He is said to have poor conditioning and work ethic, so I would not mind if Ainge has decided to look elsewhere.

looks like he is more on the opponents body not on the ball but I think we need his size.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
We would honestly be better off with Johnson out there.
Fesenko is the dictionary meaning of garbage. Words can't describe how bad this chump is.
To think of this clown wearing a Celtics jersey almost makes me cry.
Never ever please.

Read that last line again. One more time.

I'd rather give court time to Stiemsma than Fesenko.

I'd take Fez just for the media-day interviews.

Id sign him to a ten day, especially if its true that Steamah is walking in a boot.

To me I'd rather have Gadzuric.  He's a little inconsistant but runs the floor better than Fesenko and is defnitely more athletic...

I think it is safe to assume Ainge looked into it.
if he decided not to get him, he had reasons.
Give him some credit.

I don't think he's decided anything yet about any of the available big men.  He would have to cut someone right now in order to pick up one of them and he's not willing to do that until he sees if any trades can be worked out....
