[外電] 為什麼簽Lee是件好事呢?

I reserve the right to kill this post and bury it at sea if the deal doesn’t
work out. But until then, here are a few reasons why this Lee signing
deserves every overreaction it’s getting.

-As Robb pointed out earlier, the Lee signing makes the 2012-2013 Celtics the
deepest team of the Garnett era (“the Garnett era” is what we’re calling
it now, by the way). They’re carrying a bench of Jason Terry, Courtney Lee,
Jeff Green, Jared Sullinger, and Chris Wilcox. That group absolutely competes
for the best second line in basketball and could even outplay a few teams’
 starters. Maybe just Charlotte. But definitely Charlotte.

Anyway, as we learned last season, bench depth is vital in the event of freak
injuries, which are exponentially more likely when your starting forwards are
combined older than Susan Sarandon. So it’s great that Boston’s currently
rolling out a rotation that might actually be too big for the playoffs,
especially if they really go overboard and resign Pietrus.

-The really big news of this signing, combined with Terry’s, is that Boston
is actually a desirable free-agent destination now. Not necessarily for
superstars, but for valuable rotation players, and that’s also important.
Courtney Lee was being pursued by about six other teams, all reasonably
competitive, who would have paid him pretty much the same money probably
given him a chance to start. He really, really wanted to go to Boston, where
he’ll potentially be splitting minutes as a fourth guard when Avery Bradley
comes back.

This is huge. The biggest new free-agent signing of the last FIFTEEN YEARS
before these two was probably Rasheed Wallace or Jermaine O’Neal, because
before KG arrived nobody really wanted to play in Boston: the winters are
horrible and the city had a (largely deserved) reputation for being racist.
So professional basketball was handicapped in the city for years, but now the
Celtics actually have the cap space to make signings, we can see that things
have apparently changed.

-JaJuan Johnson had no future in Boston. Maybe the most revealing aspect of
Summer League for me was watching JaJuan share the floor with four scrub
players…and give up shots to them exactly like he would if he were starting
alongside Pierce, Rondo and KG. I like the guy a lot, but he’s not that
young and hasn’t visibly developed at all since he was drafted, except for
marginally improving his rebounding. As for E’Twaun Moore, he’s definitely
making the most out of his draft position but Courtney Lee is well beyond his
ceiling. Nice that those two get to keep the band together, anyway.

-Lee is a Boston headline writers’ nocturnal emission. Lee comes up with a
game-winning putback? UNBE-LEE-VABLE. Lee and Terry combine for ten straight
threes? LEE-VING ON A JET PLANE. Lee twists his ankle and is questionable for
Game 4 of the Conference Finals? DEFINITE-LEE MAYBE. One syllable last names
are money in the bank for these headline guys. That’s 40% of the reason
Jeremy Lin became a star.

-Dionte Christmas is more likely to make the roster. Now that E’Twaun’s out
of his way, the Summer League MVP has a much clearer path to the bench.
Garbage time would be limitedly more interesting with him around. You’ll be
hearing more about Christmas in the coming days as Brian Robb gives him the
blog post equivalent of a deep-tissue foot massage.

I don’t want to pull a psychic-type Pokemon on this deal, but: welcome to
Boston, Courtney! Hope you enjoy being loved!

蘇珊莎蘭登那邊讓我笑好久...

誠如作者所言，連Lee都願意拿比較低的薪水，而且也知道上場時間不會比較多

這代表有越來越多球員願意來到Boston---過往充滿種族歧視，以及嚴冬的城市

真是太令人興奮的消息啦~~~歡迎來到C's~~~

It start with 6,then 17 ,then 33 ,then 34 ,then 9.

It's all about Pride and Responsibility.

And the Cigar.

推 TT123       :Ainge在SL中間談問中有提到，球隊是刻意安排多打幾場
