Sheed Good Fit For Celtics?
The Celtics will be better this season.
That’s now Guaransheed.
With the signature of forward Rasheed Wallace to a two-year contract for the mid-level exception, the Celtics will add a veteran and winner (see: Pistons, Detroit) to their bench.
I repeat: to their BENCH.
Plenty of teams this summer were looking to add Wallace as a starter.
There are many in basketball circles who also believe they’ve added a giant headache, too.
My guess is it’s not as painful as the one now felt in Cleveland, Orlando, and San Antonio – three top tier teams that were counting on a “Yes” from Sheed. That the Cavs, Magic, and Spurs were all interested in the services of Wallace tells you what the majority of the league still thinks of the guy.
Rasheed Wallace can still play, folks.
But can he play by the Celtics’ team-first rules?...
