It looks like Walter may stay. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Someone pull Tommy Heinsohn in from the ledge. Walter may not be lost just yet. The Celtics have decided to raise their offer to multitasking free agent Walter McCarty. The original plan had Walter slotted at the veteran minimum, but yesterday the club proposed a three-year deal totaling roughly $3.5 million. The third year is the player's option.</div> I don't know where he fits in their rotation but I'd like him to stay if he will accept a cheap deal like the one Ainge proposed. http://www.bostonherald.com/sport/celtics/cs07182003.htm
walter is great but they shouldnt listen to the players jus cuz they like him so much. hes a 10th-13th man. we shuoldnt pay him like a 6th man
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">While the Magic are biding their time, they are also courting free agent Walter McCarty, who is unhappy with any and all offers from his old team, the Boston Celtics. McCarty, a 6-10, 230-pound forward, was in town earlier this week to speak with Magic officials and dined with Juwan Howard, who signed with Orlando on Wednesday.</div> It looks like the Celtics may not resign Walter after all. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/bask...ports-headlines
im kinda suprrised. if orlandos asimproved as they claim to be walter wont get much playing time at all. i guess the moneys more important to him but that really doesnt sound like walter
Well it's changed... he has returned to celtics http://www.boston.com/dailynews/200/sports...McCarty_:.shtml <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Boston Celtics re-signed veteran forward Walter McCarty to a multiyear contract Saturday. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. McCarty played in all 82 games with the Celtics last season and averaged 6.1 points and 3.5 rebounds. </div>
yea. he is a really likable player with great energy but it just seems like hes too inconsistant to warrant the playing time he gets in boston. but hten again. they dont hav e anyone better
well this is the year that kedrick brown show what he has. he will either be a starter or sixth man or he will be out of the league in a few years
Thats what Ive been thinking. Kedrick has the skills and the athleticism but has been constantly injured. I like to think hes gonna find a way to contribute. is he too old for the slam dunk competition. he could win that. But either way i dont think hell be out of the leauge if he dont produce, just off the celtics
thats gay how hes too old for the slam dunk comp. He could help out with his athlestism (sp) and tough D. He just needs an outside shot
is he? i thouhg jordan was in it in his 3rd or 4th year. kedrick was supposed to be in it. he couldve won it but he got hurt. and then before this season started he got hurt again and diddnt get to show his stuff. At the very least kedrick has the ability to be a kmart like defender with better ups (did you see hime jump OVER the 7ft tony battie to blocl a shot in a gme htis year) it seems he can shoot in practice and when he was in school but he deosnt seem to know how to unleas or doesnt know how to work in an offensive system or something

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AzBalla17:</div><div class="quote_post">he blocked his own teamate </div>No. He jumped over Battie's back to block an opponent.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Spartanfan2003:</div><div class="quote_post">Do you really think that he could have beat Jason Richardson?</div> I do think he couldve. Jason Richadson may be slightly more acrobatic but kedrick can absolutley fly. ive seen him dunk taking off from further from the basket than anyone since MJ
