Apparently he will be a "locker room leader" and an upgrade over Gordon Hayward.

Quote
The Celtics need to take a chance here and that could be someone such as a Carmelo Anthony, who is sitting at home in New York waiting for a call. Before “Oh hell no not him” is your first reaction, the Celtics wouldn’t be signing 2013 Carmelo or the one who will demand 30 minutes and play no defense.

They need a boost off the bench. Gordon Hayward scored 6 points Sunday, and is averaging 6.3 points per game since the All-Star Break. So either Stevens maintains loyalty to his former Butler pupil and allows him to get untracked or uses his minutes for a more productive player.

If there isn’t enough minutes for a player such as Anthony, then he becomes a mentor and another veteran who can help his younger teammates. You think Gasol is really going to play big minutes for the Bucks? The fact is elite teams don’t waste roster spots. You load your roster with as much talent as possible and then allow the players to prove themselves, disregarding bruised egos.

This would be the mother all of all Hail Marys wouldn't it.

Lol...hail mary is certainly the operative word

I think Melo is cooked. It certainly seemed that way last season when he was in OKC.

Hayward actually helps the offense even when he’s not scoring. I’m not buying the Hayward hate here.

Pass.

I agree, if there's one thing the Celtics need it's another selfish chucker that gives inconsistent effort on the court

meh... might as well.  Nothing about this season has gone as expected.   

Melo being the thing that glues this mess together would make sense in this bizarro universe.

Imagine if Melo came in and averaged 20PPG off the bench, leading us to a title.

I love it

Melo is not an NBA player for some time now.
We need NBA players as we are an NBA team.
