Tony was in town to sign his contract
yesterday, so the local scribes all have stories on
him.
Doc Rivers has had a wild ride in
Boston. He’s 180 degrees away from where he was
last year. A year ago, Chuck and I did a call in show where the big debate was whether the Celtics should extend Doc for a year to give him some security heading into this year…. and we were both called crazy for saying he deserved one more year after the 2006-07 debacle. Now everyone loves Doc Rivers....

A day after talking with Celtics coach Doc
Rivers, a longtime family friend, Clippers free agent forward
Corey Maggette said he is seriously considering an offer to join the NBA champions.
Danny’s denials be damned… the Celtics HAVE made
an offer to Corey Maggette. Not only that, The
Globe reports he got a call from Doc Rivers. “I talked to Doc… I’m not going to hold them up. I know they are still looking at James Posey. But I’m still weighing my options.” As for his potential reserve role with the Celtics: “I don’t mind. If you want to win, you have to make sacrifices..."
"He really knows how to play," Rivals.com recruiting
analyst Jerry Meyer says. "He's got a maturity level
to his game that you don't see in a lot of college players. He's got the size and the skill to make all the plays and he's a true combo guard that excels at both the point and shooting guard positions. He's one of the best guards, if not the best guard, that I've seen in the 2011 class."
