Isn’t T-Lue good friends with KG? Lester now has someone looking over his shoulders?

Same scenario as Sam Cassell.

As soon as Danny moves TA (in a 2 for 1 deal or for a bag of empty peanut shells), I would half expect to see Lue signed to a contract for the remainder of the season.

Not a bad insurance policy.

If he could still play, he’d be playing. Just like Cassell, he’s looking at developing his life after basketball. His friendship with KG probably cemented the deal. I hope he puts in some good work with Hudson.

I would have preferred BJax, who just announced his retirement. But Lue is better than nothing.

i miss sam. a bit surprising to me that he ened up at washington rather than here. because of flip sanders i guess?

… that they’ve signed Michael Sweetney as “Team Nutritionist.”

By mid-season, many will wonder if the Daniels as the backup ball handler is a good idea, regardless of how well the team is faring. With Lue around, assuming he’s practicing, then we’ll know that Doc and Ainge have an informed handle on the alternatives.

From every indication, Lue has zero game left. A teaching role is the only thing he’s qualified for…

This is genius, but i’d rather Cassell as a coach, and i’d rather Lester as a player. But still VERY smart.

Can Tyrone’s knowledge of the Magics’s and Laker’s strengths and weaknesses help the Celts?

Cuz I am watching these guys play their preseason game right now and they look gooood. They have some serious toughness and athleticism, and they’re gonna be much more of a challenge than I thought.

One thing’s for sure though, the East will be DOMINATED by 3 teams

Hudson will go to the d-league so that he can keep playing and learn the pro game. It is an ideal move for him. Rather than have him sitting on the end of the bench cheerleading. Who knows, he may be called back later on in the season especially if he does well.

and that should help to make him a pretty good coach. Whether or not he has the personality to be a coach I couldn’t say, though I never really saw Sam Cassell in that role. It’s funny how things turn out but it just felt like Lue would one year somehow find his way to Boston even as an assistant coach/insurance policy. He’s the type of player who could probably sit out 3/4 of the season, then come in and nail a couple of runners to help win a game. Of course, you wouldn’t want to see him in the same backcourt with Eddie.

The guy who should be looking over his shoulder is Giddens, not Hudson (oe even Walker). Lester has already shown more game than J.R. has to date. To my eyes, Giddens has a lot of Gerald Green in him, and that can’t be good.
