Blake Griffin just signed a one year deal with the Celtics. Seems like the Celtics are the team for veterans to try and win a chip with now. I’m not so sure they’re the team to beat in the east. I think the 76ers, Bucks, & Nets all have better teams, but with Nash being strict on the old guys maybe the Celtics are the only place willing to take the old ring chasers. Hope Blake has a good season. Last year was a bit embarrassing.
At least we will see another season for Blake, but I'm not expecting him to play many minutes with the C's. Probably just like the veteran that he is, Blake could be a good mentor for the young team.
Well they have proven themselves last year, beating all the those teams in the East. It's that they will have a interim coach so that could be a factor, also the noise about their former coach might have an impact to some of the players. But we will see, maybe from time to time Griffin could have some games that he will excel, not seeing the former high flying and poster dunks from him, but at least solid contribution and his shooting from 3's have improved when he lost his athleticism. It might come in handy in close games.
