Celtics targets: Michael Redd, Grant Hill, Tayshaun Prince?



Redd篇

Whether or not they can get a deal done after the NBA lockout, the Celtics
will be in prime position this summer to encourage prominent free agents
Michael Redd, Grant Hill and Tayshaun Prince to at least consider signing in
Boston if and when the season begins.

Here’s the note on Redd from Racine Journal-Times reporter Gery Woelfel (h/t
SLAM):

I’ve heard Milwaukee Bucks management approached Michael Redd before the
lockout about returning for another season, although my impeccable sources
insist he’s going to wind up with one of the Eastern Conference’s title
contenders.

Michael Redd

Redd averaged 20-plus points for six straight seasons from 2003-08 before
suffering a series of knee injuries that kept him from 185 games over the
final three years of a six-year, $90.9 million deal with the Bucks. Playing
the final 10 games of this past season, he averaged 4.4 points (40.0 FG%) and
1.2 assists in 13.4 minutes.

Assuming Redd targets legit Eastern Conference title contenders, that should
limit his potential landing spots to Boston, Miami and Chicago. While the
Heat and Bulls could offer Redd more playing time, no team would allocate
much more than the veteran minimum to the almost 32-year-old shooting guard —
 and the Celtics have one appeal those other teams don’t: Redd’s old friend
and former Bucks teammate Ray Allen.

During a Celtics road trip to Milwaukee in March, Allen and Redd shared
dinner the night before the C’s defeated the Bucks, discussing their three
seasons together from 2000-03. Here’s what Allen told the Milwaukee Journal
Sentinel about that conversation:

“I haven’t seen Mike in maybe a year or so. I told him I miss him because I
hadn’t seen him in awhile and I hadn’t been able to talk to him. So we had
a chance to sit down and talk about a lot of things that occurred in the
past, things we enjoyed.

“We had great times and great teammates. We talked about old teammates and
great moments, and he’s still the same guy that he was when I remember him
first coming into the league.

“I told him that whatever goes on here for the rest of the season, he’s
back now and I said from a player perspective, you have to get everybody on
the same page and you have to create a ship that’s unsinkable and you have
to make sure that you make all the young guys understand what winning is
about.

“You may not win the game but understand how to do things the right way when
you get in that locker room together. Because he’s been gone, so you see
certain things that are happening and as a veteran player, you have to make
sure everyone is on the same page. That’s what he has to institute once he
gets back.”

You’ve got to admit, it would be hard for any member of another Eastern
Conference team — including the Hawks, Magic or Knicks — to pitch Redd
better than Allen. But would the Celtics actually want another aging,
injury-plagued player on the roster? If Redd’s willing to sign for the
veteran minimum, it might be worth the risk for a guy who could provide
shooting (38.3 career 3P%) and scoring in limited minutes off the bench.


簡單扼要的說就是，江湖上有傳言Redd想在下的球季替冠軍爭奪球隊效力，當然不免俗的

公牛跟熱火能給他的錢比較多，而我們唯一也是其他對所沒有的有利之處是：他跟Ray

是好朋友，在我們作客密爾瓦基時Ray還有跟Redd一起吃吃飯聊聊天~~~

當然，Redd膝蓋還是令人有些擔心，但若是他能領老將底薪的話，加上他的技巧跟出色

投射能力，或許是個可以一賭的風險～



Hill篇


Now, as for another aging free agent, here’s the latest on Hill from the
Charlotte Observer (h/t @ESPNForsberg):

As big an attraction as Duke figures to be in China, the Blue Devils’
 traveling party won’t lack for celebrity, either.

Coach Mike Krzyzewski said Tuesday that he expects former players Grant Hill,
Jay Williams, Nolan Smith and Kyrie Irving to join the team for part or all
of the upcoming trip to China and Dubai, as will Boston Celtics coach Doc
Rivers, whose son Austin Rivers is a freshman guard for the Blue Devils.

Duke will leave Sunday for a two-week tour that will include three games
against Chinese teams and a fourth against the national team of the United
Arab Emirates.

Grant Hill

Considering Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge once got
fined $30,000 after he was randomly seated next to Kevin Durant‘s mother
during a University of Texas game,  I’m not sure where Doc’s presence on a
two-week trip with the Duke basketball team falls under the NBA’s rules
against contact between team executives and potential NBA draft picks. Then
again, the NBA doesn’t actually exist right now, and they can’t really tell
him he can’t hang out with his son, right?

Anyhow, the Celtics coach will have plenty of time to lure Hill, who played
four seasons for Rivers on the Magic from 2000-04. We featured the
38-year-old swingman as a prime target among potential C’s free agent
options at backup small forward. Here’s the lowdown on Hill from that piece:

    Status: Unrestricted

    2010-11 averages (80 games): 30.1 MIN, 13.2 PTS, 4.2 REB, 2.5 AST, 48.4
FG%, 39.5 3P%, 82.9 FT%

    Why? Like Tracy McGrady, Hill has played for Celtics head coach Doc
Rivers in the past and recently told The Globe, “He was great, still is, he’
s a friend.” One of the most respected veterans in the league, Hill can
still produce in every aspect of the game — scoring, rebounding, passing
and, most importantly, defending.

    Why not? When Shaquille O’Neal said Father Time had caught up to him, he
could have been talking about Hill, who will turn 39 in October. While Hill
has been relatively healthy over the course of his four-year stint in
Phoenix, he has a lengthy injury history that includes 135 missed games from
2000-06 in Orlando.


我們河流教練會隨杜克藍魔鬼去海外旅行，之前安吉好像因為在德州大學比賽中

無意坐在Durant媽媽旁邊而被罰了３萬美金...不過這次河流跟杜克一起出去

聯盟總不能說要老爸不能接近兒子吧XDDD  Hill講了很多次就不提了~



Prince篇

Finally, we move to Prince and something that struck me while putting
together “10 Things I Heard About Celtics.” Both Celtics All-Star point
guard Rajon Rondo and All-Star power forward Kevin Garnett will be in
communication with Prince this summer. While Rondo’s encounter will be a
brief one — during an exhibition game between former University of Kentucky
stars and the Dominican Republic national team — Garnett’s tie to Prince
appears to be an extended one. Both players are reportedly training with Joe
Abunassar at Impact Basketball in Las Vegas during the offseason.

The Celtics were among a slew of teams expect to be interested in Prince when
rumors flew around that the Pistons may have been considering buying out the
remainder of his $11.1 million contract around this past trade deadline. We
also featured the 31-year-old forward as a prime target among potential C’s
free agent options. Here’s the lowdown on Prince from that piece:

    Status: Unrestricted

    2010-11 averages (78 games): 32.8 MIN, 14.1 PTS, 4.2 REB, 2.8 AST, 47.3
FG%, 34.7 3P%, 70.2 FT%

    Why? A starter on the Pistons’ 2004 NBA championship squad, Prince’s
length and athleticism has made him a pest defensively to opposing small
forwards like Paul Pierce. He also takes care of the ball and fills the
bucket offensively.

    Why not? At 6-foot-9 and just 215 pounds, Prince has always been
extremely skinny, and back problems that flared up during the 2009-10 season
somewhat limited his ability to get to the rim offensively and keep up
defensively.

至於小王子，我們最大的有利點還是:跟他同校出身的Rondo...XDDD

然後KG好像也有跟他在同個訓練員底下訓練的樣子~

當然啦價格甚麼得大家也都很清楚就不贅述啦(偷懶)


Obviously, nothing can officially be done with Redd, Hill or Prince until the
NBA and its players association come to an agreement on a new collective
bargaining agreement, but it’s important to note that the Celtics coach and
his all-star players could plant the seed sooner with a trio of potentially
valuable additions — just as they did with past veteran additions Rasheed
Wallace, Shaquille O’Neal, Jermaine O’Neal, James Posey, Eddie House, Sam
Cassell and P.J. Brown.

總之一切都還要等封館結束

不過這也或許是我們最後還會希望依些老將來加盟的最後衝刺階段了~

好好選擇然後再努力拚一季吧!!!
