I am actually a big fan of Humphries

I still have no idea why the Nets would not play him this past season

The guy was a stud the previous two seasons in NJ averaging a double-double

He averaged 14/11 and 10/10 with a block in there as well; he's also really improved on his FT%, shooting 43% his rookie year to nearly 80% last season



He put up a Per of nearly 18 in those 2 seasons as well when he averaged a double-double

He was also near the top of the league in Rebound Percentage, both offensive and defensive

Also Throw in Reggie Evans, and I think we have fixed up our Rebounding problems altogether [especially with Doc no longer in the picture]

I think you mean, Rondo will make Humphries see stars, first chance he gets.

It's going to be a weird dynamic in the locker room, I think.

I could easily see Humphries going for 15/10 next year if he plays 32-35mpg.

Same for Sully. They'll be probably be competing for one another's minutes. If one of them can come out of it and play long minutes, I think that player would have a good shot at 15/10.

I wonder if there are more than 50 Celtics fans who are excited about seeing that jerk Kris Humphries in a Celtics uniform next year. The question is, can they turn around and trade him or do they have to wait a certain number of months? Hopefully they can package a lot of this Nets' trash out of town and quickly.

  • We may as well put Tyrion in at center.

Hahahahahaha TP. That is probably one of the better posts of 2013 so far.
I like Marcus Smart

Supposedly Humphries may be on his way to Charlotte.

  • Let's Go Celtics!
There's talk that Humphries gets shipped out before the season starts. We're pretty PF heavy, someone gonna go.

If the Brooklyn trade goes down on July 10, Humphries could be traded that same day, provided he's not combined with other players by Boston.

Over the course of the next two weeks, perhaps we'll see this trade expand to include another team.

Link(s)? I'm curious as to what we could get from CHA for him.

Supposedly Charlotte tried to swap Ben Gordon for Humphries last year.

Trade Bass instead. We are rebuilding right? So let go of the contracts that are stuck to us for years. With Olynyk having a solid mid range shot, we could use Humphries rebounding and expiring deal for something else.
