Many reports have been swirling on the internet that Rasheed Wallace will come out of retirement to play for the Boston Celtics. This will be a move to have insurance incase KG goes down again (God forbid) or Jermaine or Shaq need a rest. I think it is a move the Celtics needed to make because they are getting killed on the glass especially with the absence of their defensive leader Kevin Garnett. His last year with the Celtics in 2009-2010, Sheed averaged 14.4 points per game as well as 6.6 rebounds. He is another piece to the puzzle that will help the Celtics down the stretch. This will also deepen the bench with Kendrick Perkins coming back. One would need to think Shaq will be stripped of his starting duties, but we will see.
His size and ability to shoot the three could be another weapon to the Celtics run to the Championship in June. Having another seven footer who can knock down jumpers as well as play in the post is a luxury the Celtics would love to have. I would love Rasheed back if he does not take ill-advised threes as Antoine Walker use to hoist up there.
If Sheed decides to return to Beantown look for a hungrier Sheed. His last game as a Celtic he lost in Game 7 of the NBA finals and he does not want to face that situation again. I will welcome Sheed back to Boston with open arms. He knows his role for limited minutes and off the bench. He is a veteran now. He is no longer the dominant player he was with North Carolina, but I'll still take him and another thing.... Ball Don't Lie.
Fuckin Johnny on the spot with Boston sports stories. Barstool doesn't have anything on it and CelticsBlog doesn't have any commentary on it. I agree with you for the most part. We're gonna have to deal with injuries all season as well as the playoffs, although hopefully not. It's never bad to have a lot of tall players who can rebound and shoot 3's. He has shot some ill-advised treys, but I've seen him hit daggers when it counts against us and he played well all though last year's playoffs. I feel the need for 'sheed.
