<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Celtics coach Doc Rivers said he'd hire Sam Cassell on the spot. "I know he wants to play another year, but if he doesn't I'll put him on my staff," Rivers said. "I just think he's got a great basketball IQ. He can work with the point guards and free me up."
