The Celtics Should Sign Fred Jones
Fred Jones gets cut from the ClippersThe Celtics should sign Fred Jones immediately. Seems that all the cheapo Clip Show did was give every other NBA team a look to see what Freddie still had in the tank and frankly, it was a lot (or at least enough). The Clippers decided not to pay Jones for the rest of the year and waived him today. He’s better than Tony Allen right now and Allen is essentially the C’s 6th man. By the way, the Clippers also cut Paul Davis, who is probably better than Big Baby right now as well.

Jones would be a good addition to any team but he is not a point guard. He is another Eddie House.

I’m not looking for them to get a point guard with the Jones signing. I’m looking for them to get a guy off the bench who hustles, can score a bit, and defend. That’s Freddie Jones. Have you seen Tony Allen play this season? It’s somewhat dreadful to watch.

agreed^ Tony Allen should just fake his knee injury and stay off the court.

Lady Luck says:
Boston, Denver, Charlotte, Dallas, New Orleans, Atlanta….all teams who could use a scoring guard off the bench.
Paul Davis will probably get picked up by somebody who needs an extra big man.

Wizards isn’t happening. Utah makes some sense. So does Denver with Melo out.

Celts Fan says:
Big Baby’s not bad, he’s just not a center and COMPLETELY neutralized playing next to another 6′ 7″ PF. Put him next to a legit 5 and he’d be an okay, end of rotation type guy (Davis doesn’t even belong in the league.)

Celts Fan says:
and yes, Fred Jones, do it now.
