Tanguay Rumor: Grant Hill In; Big Baby Out
CelticsBlogTanguay is reporting   It is also my belief that Grant Hill will sign with Boston after meeting face-to-face with Doc Rivers by the end of the week. Glen Davis could be gone to San Antonio, as they are prepared to offer their mid-level slot, which it is my understanding that Boston will not match. Davis is a restricted free-agent and any offer he receives can be matched by the Celtics within 7 days.   I mocked Tanguay's gut in the past, but I guess he's reliable until proven ...

Now that we got Sheed, C's turn attention to Hill
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans — ... The C's have spent the past two years going with option 2.  Two years ago, they got to their final destination.  Last year, they ran out.  This year, with the addition of Rasheed Wallace, they're adding a little extra gas for the "just in case."  And now that he was on point with the Rasheed Wallace talk...

Celtics Rumor: Swap Grant Hill for Glen Davis
Dime Magazine — ... spot. But he’ll go a long way to help fill the void left by James Posey after Boston won the ‘chip. The C’s basically went last season without having a second small forward. They never used Bill Walker , they hated playing Tony Allen , and no one else on the roster could even pretend to be a three. So Grant Hill would be a welcome addition, helping to take some mileage off of Paul Pierce’s legs. Plus, Hill’s presence might get AARP to sponsor the Celtics this season. Source: Comcast Sports Net

Glen Davis in San Antonio? Fine by me
Ball Don't Lie — If today seems the polar opposite of my initial reactions to the free agency frenzy from last Wednesday, well, it's because it is. Things are a little cheerier. And, as my girlfriend pointed out sometime this weekend, "you can catch these stupid fruit flies with a bowl full of vinegar, but you and your brother need to stop leaving half-drunk Schlitz bottles lying around. They love them." Next up, to half drink a Schlitz? Glen Davis in San Antonio. How great would that be? Davis completely turned his season ...

No Big Baby Offer, McDyess Still the Primary Target
48 Minutes of Hell — Many of you have read this by now but, just in case you haven’t, Jeff McDonald of the Express-News has confirmed that this report by Gary Tanguay of CNNSE was premature: Though the Spurs have contacted Davis since free agency began last week, they have yet to discuss an offer with his camp. In addition, the two sides have not talked since Wallace committed to the Celtics on Sunday. McDonald also confirmed that Antonio McDyess remains the Spurs top FA target now that Rasheed Wallace is off the market.
