Celtics sign SG-Jason Terry to 3-year, $15.7 million deal
The Celtics starting five played exceptionally well this season but Boston lacked any real scoring pop off their bench. Enter Jason Terry. One of the top bench scorers in the NBA the past few seasons, The Jet will provide that punch especially if Ray Allen ends up signing elsewhere. The C’s still want to bring Allen back but if they are unable to, Terry serves as a solid replacement.

Last night the Indiana Pacers treated the Miami Heat like Wall Street/the U.S. Government treats anyone who opposes Goldman Sachs- total obliteration.

It’s a tough economy out there. Gotta hustle for every dollar. Even those ultra-lucrative NBA beat reporter consumer dollars. The Indiana Pacers are playing well, there’s a gap between them and the soft underbelly of the Central Division. There’s also a gap between them and the Chicago Bulls.
