Celtics presser

[edwardjkasche]

I've never booed a Boston Celtic before (that I can remember), but I feel like we have to boo Humphries if he ever steps foot on the parquet in a Cs jersey.

Echoing everyone else's comments... he's a massive jerk.

He barely even held up his jersey for the photo.

I guess Gerald gets to keep his #45...or did we retire Raef Lafrenz's jersey yet?

Wasn't he wearing 54?

edit: I guess not.

I absolutely, positively, without a doubt and ever so sincerely hope that he's GONE before we even play a preseason game. I do NOT want to see that clown in a Celtic jersey!

Give me a break with this booing B.S. on Humphries, or calling him Kardashian, etc.

If he's giving you a double double this year nobody is booing anybody.  He's going to be a perfect trade chip at the deadline & we need him to produce like he did 2 years ago.

You don't know the man, don't label him as a jerk or this and that.  My word.

I think, without it being specifically mentioned, Kris Joseph is either going straight to D-League or is getting cut.  Ainge didn't mention him and the players aren't mentioning him.  They keep saying "four players."  Bogans, Brooks, Humphries, and Wallace.

Yeah, I'd hold off on those KJ jerseys--like the Celtics just did.

If Sully's not fully back from his back, which I think is quite possible, I could see Humphries and KO starting the season together.  What about Bass?  Good question.  With his smaller contract he may be tradeable sooner.

Bass is the most logical trade guy right, because he's useful to a lot of teams, not massively overpaid, and he's unnecessary in a rebuild.  They're going to give KO a lot of minutes, Sully's still a big part of the future, and Gerald Wallace is going to play more (and I think better) than I believe people expect.  Bass seems like fourth-string right now, so trade him while you can.

I believe that most people here commenting on him, including myself, are speaking on his actions and body language during this presser which appeared to be that he didn't want to be there and has no interest in being a Celtic. I will speak for myself when I say that's MY observation and I have a right to say whatever I please about what I feel about him.  I could care less who he was married to or what he did anywhere else. He's putting on the Green and white right now, so either he represents or he gets talked about just like anyone else would!

I personally don't like Humphries already. His face when he answered the first question was self-explanatory about what he feels being on this team. But since he is in a contract year, he must perform, right?

Humphries is definitely a jerk, but he seems to be a funny jerk.

Well, he's our jerk now, at least until 30 seconds after this presser when Ainge trades him for a bag of balls.

I knew the mandatory 'bag of ...' joke would be brought up at least once when talking about Humphries.

That's what I got from him too, It seems like he cannot wait to get out of that presser.

If he came in with a good attitude and was genuinely excited to be in the Green and White, I wouldn't mind him playing here. But as we all saw, he is a jerk, and does not want to be in Boston, so I hope he gets dealt sooner than later.

I don't know if he was putting on for the Kardashian show, but he was a massive jerk on there.That's why he's labeled as such in the media I guess.

That's spot on to what I observed at the presser. It seems like Marshon truly and honestly wants to wear the Celtic jersey. Keith sounds like he's ready to get to work (plus he's payed pretty well),and Kris sounded BLAH.

To be fair anyone who puts up with that woman should be in the running for sainthood.

I don't think so.  I think most are just pre-judging him from a stupid tv show, etc.

Could be. A fabricated Tv show isn't reality.

I also think that 1st impressions are everything. Some already didn't care for him anyways and then he gave a dry half attempt during the presser. If he plays well then people will change their minds, but can't fault people for feeling a certain way after how he presented himself.
