Will Solomon To Celtics?
As far as I'm concerned this guy should already be in the league...
"Teams cannot sign free agents until July 22. For now, it's open season on negotiating - and recruiting and posturing and lying. According to several sources, the Celtics are doing more than their part to raise revenue for cell phone companies. The latest word is that New Jersey free agent forward Brian Scalabrine is among those to whom the Celts are speaking. Point guard Wil Solomon, a Clemson product who played last season in Turkey, is also being evaluated."

Re: Will Solomon To Celtics?
He played how many games? Don't say foolishness. He avg. 5.2 ppg in 14.2 mpg in 62 games as a rookie.
He's a much better player now. I also think the Celtics are a poor fit for him. He's a 3rd guard on a good team.

please. i can tell you the guy had no place in the league. even for (at the time) one of the worst teams in the league. and what's the point in throwing out two useless stats? they mean nothing and don't speak to his abilities. i was a season ticket holder; i watched every game. the guy isn't league material.

Re: Will Solomon To Celtics?
You live in Russia, but were a season ticket holder in Memphis?
Eddie House, Lionel Chalmers, Flip Murray and Troy Hudson can play in this league, but an improved Will Solomon can't? Give me a break.

Re: Will Solomon To Celtics?
Brian Scalabrine has agreed to a deal with us and will be signed on the first day we are allowed to sign free agents.

Re: Will Solomon To Celtics?
I think what rhino was trying to say is that this guy can't be worse than Scalabrine.

Re: Will Solomon To Celtics?
I liked him more than I liked Eddie Gill, when he was in Memphis. And I heard he's improved quite a bit since then.
He'd make a good third-string point option somewhere in the league.
