Antione Walker playing right now.

No. Not in the NBA finals.

Pros vs Joes on spike.

I guess he is admitting he is washed up.

Does he need the money already?

Apparently he's in the best shape of his life according to a few sources.

I still think he has something left in the tank. I was surprised we didn't get him this past season. Say what you will about him, but he would have been a welcome addition off the bench.

He is done!!! Why can't people accept it? I hated the pick when they made it and although he grew on me, he was always a good player on a bad team and it wasn't until Pierce came where the team actually did anything. Antoine always had the natural ability to be better, but he allowed fame and money to distort his self worth and never worked hard enough to maximize that talent. Too bad, but when he made the all star team and self proclaimed himself a "all star" veteran, it pretty much sealed the rest of his career and now he can self proclaim himself a "Pros vesus Joes" veteran.

Agreed, if he came off the bench, he could help...

His tank ran out of gas about 3 years ago in miami. Since then he had to ride the bus to MEM and MIN and he just kind of hung around the station.

There is no way he already pissed through all of his money.

This guy could be in a wheelchair and we would have people saying he has 'something left the tank"...LMAO. Scalabrine is better then him now - and we have Scabs under contract. It would be a total waste of a roster spot assuming he COULD play but of course he cant..

Let Tonie play on our summer league team, so he can showcase what he has left to the league.

Its the least we can do for employee number 8.

maybe if he dominates, we'll give him a look in the fall

Danny Ainge made him a very rich man by doing a sign and trade with Miami. That's enough.

Dude its SUMMER LEAGUE ( In Allen Iversen Voice )

If he can't play there, maybe he'll give up the ghost.

Consider it an Intervention without the dramatic music and Candy Finnegan.

Maybe at the end of camp, he'll say " I'll Go " and sign the NBA Retirement papers

Return to Boston Celtics
