Thank heavens. Don't let the door hit ya.

Yup, C's gave him a chance with the bad back and he didn't take advantage. If he can't stop eating for a contract year, then he never will. See ya, let Mickey take his minutes.

As it stands, here are some possibilities... they want to keep Yabusele with the team instead of stashing him, they might have a good outlook in keeping Zeller (maybe in a 1yr deal), maybe a trade is coming and they needed the cap space.

From a C's standpoint, those might make the most sense to me. Of course, maybe they did indeed feel pressured to sign Al Horford right away. But, even though I feel this was a premature thing to to, I'll have to wait and see what else happens before we can judged what occurred here. Ainge and his CBA Guru team are very good at their job, and they always seem to milk the most they can from their cap room situation.

So, will be interesting to see in the end what motivated this decision and so soon into FA.

For those interested, by my calculations we have $4,562,833 in cap room right now or $6,136,333 if Yabusele is stashed.

Holland waived of course.

this is due to the fact that we bought back Amir right? 12 mil from that deal? and Jerebko of course

Thanks for all the rebounds, Sully.

Hopefully, this is a wakeup call to you to get things in order.

Thanks for your time here Sully. I have never been a Sully basher and have always been a supporter but I actually can see the direction we are headed and speed is not in your game. Good luck to you.

Another wasted first round draft choice.
Coined the CelticsBlog term, "Euromistake."

how ironic, the team/player I ever truly saw Sullinger look completely useless against were the Hawks and Horford.

if this guy just once showed he was actually committed basketball and not growing his waistline he could've been something.

instead just throw him into the pile of Antoine Walker, Derrick Coleman & Oliver Miller.

I won't get on the front office for this pick. he was considered pretty good value for where we drafted that yr.

Source confirms Jared Sullinger has been renounced and is  unrestricted FA. Ends uneven tenure with #Celtics. 11.1 ppg. 7.7 rpg in 258 games


So I guess change is coming after all

at 21, Sullinger was considered a great pick, besides passing on Green, no one else at 21 was a better pick. Guess who passed on Green, everyone else before pick 35.

What? Getting what we've gotten out of Sullinger at #21 is pretty good value. He started on a team that won 48 games last year, and has given us some monster games.

If he could've managed to commit to being in shape, we'd probably be giving him Mozgov Money right now.

Still a chance he resigns here on a 1 or 2 year deal anyway.
