    ^ Well probably Seattle, after they learnt from Jim McIlvaine with Calvin Booth and Jerome James...

    he could get 7 mill, just for the simple fact that therejust aren't enough good centres around anymore. They've all retired. A lot of the talented big men, play power forward instead. Look at Duncan, he's 7 foot, has great low post moves and could handle pretty much anyone physically. yet they play nestrorovic instead of say horry, just so he can play PF.
    If I was a 7 footer in college i'd be licking my lips right now :P . Unless you can't hold a ball then you're gonna make it to the pro's. look at john amaechi from my homeland, he's playing in our 2nd league now! He was in the NBA last year. Note to all those who aren't aware of how poor british basketball is, some pros have to work 2 jobs 2 be able to pay the rent.(IT'S RUBBISH) :thumbsdow

    I think Blount could end up at the Heat.

    next year, being a celtics fan, i think the celtics would be crazy not to resign him/ give him an extension, hes old, but still can play.

    I don't think the Celtics would be considered "crazy" by any means, by not resigning Blount.

    IN fact, most Celtic fans I've talked to not only don't expect him to be back, but aren't even really sure he's that important of a player to us.

    He's a guy that can put of descent numbers, but it only happens when his teammates are the ones keeping him involved in the game. He can't really create much offense on his own and his hands are less than great.

    If he asks more than the MLE, Danny will almost certainly wish him well and cut him loose, for what Blount probably sees as greener pastures in Miami, Orlando, or now the they've hired his boy OB, PHilly.

    One things for sure, Blount can be replaced on the C's roster.
