'Sheed Press Conference

[doughboy90650]

Checkin' out the press conference with the Big 3, 'Sheed, Ainge and Doc ......

Answered some questions, yadda, yadda, yadda .... Ainge with the quote "If we had a healthy KG, we would have come out of the East." Kinda find that difficult since they haven't won in Cleveland since 1942.

Talked about matchups, 'Sheed's impact on Perkins, who's coming off the bench, reasons why he didn't sign with the Spurs or Bobcats and a possible lineup of:

Rondo
Allen
Pierce
Garnett
Wallace

Then brought up Grant Hill. C's are still in the running. Knix have the upper hand.

Might as well write in the Cavs and C's in the Eastern Conference Finals .......

I really wish KG was healthy last year. They would have beat Orlando and we would have raped them in 5 games. I never thought I would pissed about a Celtic getting injured, but looking back on it, I am.

I think it was pretty obvious. Magic struggled with a KG-less squad and barely won in seven; even though they get big props winning in Boston.

I really found it weird how ORL struggled to beat BOS without KG and how perkins did a decent job defending howard...He proved he is a decent defender IMO

Glad to hear NY has the upperhand on signing hill...If they got hill,that would be even more of a challenge to deal with...



Kidd also think hill will go to NY

Jason Kidd told Dan Patrick he thinks Grant Hill will sign with the Knicks.

"I think so," Kidd said of Hill taking the Knicks' contract offer. "I think that would be a good fit. He played for Coach [D'Antoni]. They'll go out and run and have the Garden jumping."

Kidd had other quotable remarks during the interview.

"My decision had nothing to do with LeBron [James], if I was going to go to New York," Kidd said. "Because you just don't know. You see the market, salaries coming down, next year coming down farther."

Kidd said he thinks James will remain with the Cavs past 2010. "I would say yes right now. He'll stay in Cleveland," said Kidd.

But Kidd did speak about the possibility of James playing for the Knicks: "The Garden would be a great match, the Garden and LeBron, the excitement he would bring, like being in
Chicago for Michael [Jordan]."

Do us a favor NY

Ah man, let the Celtics sign Grant Hill, they would be the oldest team in the history of NBA? (kidding, idk, maybe close to it), lol

It wuld be like Grant's gonna log 30 mins a night ...... 10 -14 minutes behind Pierce. Definitely could help the C's
