Delonte wins Game 4!

Hit a trey with 5 seconds to go for the final score of 100-97. Gee, I really want him back. Does anyone remeber his last second trey last season against the Nets to send the game to OT? Those were the good old days... well, now it's the good new days. But I still want him back next season. $9M/3yr? Does that sound alright?

You're not getting him. We already have a 3 1/2 guard rotation with Rondo, R. Allen, Cassell, and part of Posey's time.

Cleveland will outbid by far what we'd pay for his slot.

I think Tony Allen is staying, despite his ups and downs. He'll only get short money. And I think he'll blossom with the millions guaranteed that even that implies.

I'm glad for Delonte, but I'd pass on reacquiring his services.

I think he makes a good back-up PG, and kinda makes sense especially if we trade Tony Allen. I'd rather have him than Cassell. But depending on how the rest of the offseason shapes up, I don't know if we can afford to pay $3 mil per to someone whose primary role would be back-up PG.

Clutch by Delonte. I am please for him as it looked like he was going to get buried in Seattle for a while there, and he deserves better. He always plays hard and some national pub won't hurt his contract negotiations.

I was pleased for Delonte too. I always liked him when he was here. He's not a great player by any stretch, but he'll be a servicable guy around the league probably for many years to come.

Good to see him come through in the clutch.

Clevelands been on Delonte's sack as long as I have, no way they let him go. Especially for less than Scal makes.

Clevelands front office sucks hard. I expect them to bid against themselves in Zeke fashion..

I'm happy for Delonte. He was one of my favorites on our team and I still cheer for him. Big time shot.

I too am extremely happy for Delonte. Obviously, he'd better not pull that kind of crap when he faces us.

It's cool that he's got some of that playoff positivity going on. He's a much better player when he's loose and confident. Coming back to Boston isn't a complete impossibility, but I like Eddie House more. He's a better shooter and more tested. If we lose House, then West wouldn't be a bad pickup, IMO. But I'd rather keep House.

Do we need a thread every time a former Celtic has a good game?

I am not happy for him. He is on the Cavs.

Go Celtics, not Cavs.

Yeah, that was a good moment for D-West and I can see a spot for him on this team. I pray that Cassell is gone next year.
