James Posey Won?t Be Returning To Boston Celtics Next Season

Unfortunately for the Boston Celtics, James Posey will not be on the team next year since he signed a 4 year $25 million deal with the New Orleans Hornets. He wanted to stay in Boston, but the Hornets offered him more money. “It was a really tough decision for him, Boston was an incredible experience for [...]

Posey Leaves Boston For a New Team Just For the Sake of Playing For a New Team

If blogging were reporting, I would've written up a post about James Posey to the Hornets as soon as I stepped out of the car last night. Because once news is twelve hours old, it might as well be dead, right? But I didn't, and that gave me some time to reflect meaningfully on this move. What exactly are we to infer from Posey -- a key cog in a Boston machine that could repeat -- choosing to head to less proven pastures? Don't get me wrong, New Orleans is perhaps the team of the future. Chris Pa...

Boston Celtics forward James Posey, right, poses with teammate Eddie House while signing autographs on a DVD of the team's NBA Championship season at a bookstore in Boston, Tuesday July 15, 2008. Both players are free agents and are in the process of negotiating new contracts.

With Maggette off the market, Celtics need to get Posey deal done

Former Los Angeles Clippers star Corey Maggette has reached a verbal agreement with the Golden State Warriors on a five-year, $50 million contract. And while this does little to shift the balance of power in the Western Conference, it does limit the free-agent options of the world champion (that's so nice to say) Boston Celtics. It seemed to be a longshot for the Celtics to sign Maggette, who averaged 22.1 points and 5.6 rebounds per game last season for the Clippers. With Boston already over t...

Sonics' move to Oklahoma City a black eye for professional sports

The Seattle SuperSonics have been playing in the NBA for 41 years. They've been to three NBA finals, won one championship (1979) and have one of the most loyal fan bases in the league. They boast a star-studded list of former alumni that includes former Celtics star Dennis Johnson, current Celtics star Ray Allen, Gary Payton, Shawn Kemp, Lenny Wilkens, Jack Sikma, Spencer Haywood and Dale Ellis. Maybe they aren't the Boston Celtics or the L.A. Lakers, but they're not the Charlotte Bobcats eithe...
