Stuck In My Head - Celtics Rally Edition



Dudes, Cs down 27 points and win by eight over the Magic.  I think one of two things happens today:

1.  Dwight Howard walks into Otis Smith's (Magic GM) office and demands that he be traded retroactive to Wednesday, so he doesn't have last night's loss on his conscience anymore.

2.  Dwight Howard bursts in to Stan Van Gundy's office with clippers and shaves his porn stache off.



Orlando scored what, like 25 points in the second half and the Cs closed with a 44-15 run?  Are you kidding me?

Big Baby's No Pants Party



I loved the trade of Big Baby for Brandon "Lance" Bass when it happened and I still love it today.  The dude has to have a short circuit in his brain, right?  Doc Rivers must have felt like he had a 12 year old on the team at all times with Davis around.

How Glen Davis led his LSU team to the Final Four, I will never know.

Big Baby Headed to America's Wang


Sorry, wrong one...


Boston Globe Celtics Blog - The Celtics will deal forward Glen Davis to Orlando in a sign-and-trade that will send Magic forward Brandon Bass to Boston, a source tells Marc Spears of Yahoo! Sports. The move would end a four-year run for Davis and the Celtics that started with a with a world championship and ended with questions over Davis' effort and maturity.

Bass' agent told the Orlando Sentinel the deal was close.

The Sentinel also reported the Davis deal would be for four years, and that Davis was on his way to Florida to take a physical.

Davis, a second-round pick by Seattle in 2007, came to the Celtics via a draft-night trade that also brought Ray Allen to Boston. Davis played in 69 games as a rookie and averaged 4.5 points and 3 rebounds. Davis filled in as a starter for Kevin Garnett during the 2009 playoffs and had perhaps his best run in a Celtics uniform, averaging 15.8 points and 5.6 rebounds in 36 minutes per game. During that postseason, however, Davis drew criticism for pushing a young fan in Orlando following a game-winning shot over the Magic. That offseason, Davis broke his hand in a fight with a childhood friend, keeping him out until December.


Davis upped his scoring average to 11.7 points per game last season, but his shot selection was questioned, and he was a virtual no-show in the postseason. Bass, too, has had an up-and-down career, and the Magic are likely moving him for the same reasons the Celtics are moving Davis. A second-round pick out of LSU in 2005, Bass didn't show much in New Orleans before having two productive seasons in Dallas before a disappointing debut in Orlando. Last season, though, his second with the Magic, Bass averaged career highs of 11.2 points and 5.6 rebounds. At 6-feet-8-inches and 250 pounds, he's a more traditional power forward than Davis.

Well, it ain't CP3 or Dwight Howard, but Bass is solid and I would imagine that he will extend Doc Rivers' heart health and sanity a few more years.  Big Baby was, at times, a solid role player for the Celtics, but is clearly insane.  The fact that he let KG make him cry may have been the end of it for me.  Then there was his MMA fighting and the time he broke his finger and missed the start of the season because he was fighting with his friend in his car.  Doc may drop Baby off at the airport.


ANyone think David Stern nixes this deal too just because he is drunk with power?
