    Where do you think he goes Shape? I could see him possibly considering a return to Dallas if they want him to have a semi-last go around.

    Mavs just signed Von Wafer so I'm not sure if they're looking for another player at this point.

    I think the Thunder should pick him up for some veteran wisdom. I wouldn't be surprised if the Lakers give him a look either.

    As ESPN's Marc Stein reported earlier this afternoon, the Spurs have agreed to release Michael Finley today in an effort to let him explore opportunities with other teams.

    Now that the Bobcats have passed on Larry Hughes because of his finger injury, it's possible they could turn to Finley.

    Yet, according to Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports, the Celtics are considering bringing Finley on board.

    "Cs considering idea of trying to sign Finley, but offer has not been made," he tweets. "Veteran swingman shooter would be welcomed addition."

    The Celtics have already added Nate Robinson via a trade for some scoring off the bench, but it appears they may also be coveting Finley.

    Finley shot 38.1 percent and averaged 3.7 points in 15.8 minutes a game for the Spurs this year, so don't expect too much from him if the Celtics do indeed sign him.

    He needs to retire like Bowen, Finley had a good run, but he's done.
