The Celtics waived Keyon Dooling, who decides to "pursue other interests" outside of the NBA: http://on.nba.com/OeZTxX #iamaceltic

Dooling's rep, Kenge Stevenson, says after 12 years, Dooling will retire.

Looks like one of the non-guaranteed guys is going to get a role going into the season with Bradley hurt.

Shame - hope we can find him an assistant coach spot or something to keep him around the team.

Could we make him Rondo's press liaison?

I liked Dooling as a third string guard. Right role for him.

Disappointed to lose him.

for all the hate he got last season, he deserves to be a part of the Celtics organization and he should get a ring if they get #18 this year.

Thank you, KDooling

I hope he gets to be around the team in some fashion, as others have said. Keyon seems like a really good "We" kind of guy in a world (over)populated with "Me" kind of people.

Thanks, KD and good luck going forward.

Why was he signed? I gotta believe he is hurt and was just gonna be here as a friend to RR and motivator... because if not, what was the point?

I'm sad to see Keyon go; I'll miss him. Hopefully he sticks around the team (especially Rondo) somehow.

Thanks for your contributions, Reverend.

I am a bit confused, though: Did Boston waive him because he wanted to retire, or did he decide to retire after getting waived?

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
I'm good w it, especially of he can be convinced to come aboard as a coach.

The way it words out, we're becoming (with the Heat) posterboys for the 'new' nba of positionless players.

Combo guards: Bradley, Terry, Christmas
Combo forwards: Green, Joseph
F/C's: Garnett, Wilcox

Pretty interesting. Exciting too'.

Future head coach in NBA. This settles Christmas/Joseph debate.

I believe they said it was his choice..he has spent most of his life on basketball and wants to pursue other things.
