Boston Celtics Jettison Telfair

They absolutely cut the guy loose, and severed all ties.

"he does not have a Celtics locker and we do not anticipate that he will"

I am so happy to see someone with some guts...and the wherewithall to recognize thuggery and not coddle the guy because he's a superstar.

Definitely not me.

Way to go Celtics!

He isnt a good basketball player, get arrested and cant stay away from guns... not good combinations.

But I believe he still has a year left on his rookie contract so he will be paid, the Union will file a greviance and someone in that league will take a chance on him next year. He will be fine, and the Celtics will be better off without him.

Greg Oden is Bill Russell reincarnated. I hope you get him; he'll be a perfect Celtic.

Wasn't Bill Russell only about 6'9"? Oden is a bit bigger than that. Though he looks about as old as Russell right now.

Exactly, Oden looks like Russell did at age 40. Maybe that's why I drew the comparison

I do think he has Russell-like skills, though. Hopefully, he'll develop a better offensive game than Russell did
