    The Boston Geriatrics

    The Celtics need to find some young players so all of their veteran leadership won't go to waste.

      Wow he's only averaging 3.7 ppg in 25 games.

      However, the guy does have a ton of playoff experience. That was probably taken into consideration when he was signed.

      This guy hasn't been on a losing team since the 1999-00 Mavs

        I don't see anything wrong with this signing.........

        If nothing else, it gives Boston a wing player off the bench that can shoot three's........

          Finley can shoot?

          Look man, if they needed a bench player than can shoot 3's they would've kept Eddie House

            to be fair eddie house cant guard 2's or 3's....finley cant really do it that well at his age now but at least he can matchup a little...and he DOES shoot better than tony allen.

            isnt he only 34? thats not very old...but i still think hes done, ust because his game was more based on athletiscm more than anything...now that hes not as athletic if hes not making jumpers hes useless.

              You basically agree with me that Eddie House has way more value now off the bench than Finley.

              According to the logic of the post above mines, Danny Ainge screwed up

                    PJ Brown wasnt already washed up he was still effective. What does Finley do well at this point of his career?

                        Stand on the court and lets guys rest on the bench.

                        That's about it.

                        The C's need to move Allen to the bench. That'd mean Nate or Daniels (my preference) would have to start. I wouldn't mind seeing Ray-Ray and Nate out there with the second unit, would definitely add some offense.

                            Exactly my thought, which is why I'd go with Daniels in there, with Nate and Ray (hopefully) lighting it up in the second unit.

                              Ray off the bench is intriguing
