" We have some Celtics news for yet this is not John's fault now this came in literally while he was in the middle of his Award winning sports splash. Exactly but at the Boston Celtics have made an addition to their roster they announce today that they've signed free agent forward Darius Miles. Now miles hasn't played in any of the last two seasons he's missed both the 20067. And -- seven -- seasons due to micro fracture surgery. On his right knee an injury that. At least the Portland trailblazers I think thought was career ending. It was originally drafted third overall pick in the 2000 draft by the Clippers in fact he became the first player in NBA history. To receive all rookie honor straight out of high school averaged nine point four points and one point 54 blocks for the Clippers in 2002001. This is a guy who -- helping. Could be a nice addition to this team is Danny Ainge said in the release. -- Darius will have the next couple of months to prove to myself and coach Rivers that he can help us win I think that has much to do with health does anything else. I I don't think this is the James Posey roster replacement but if healthy I think he could be an interest in signing for this team."

" Totally agreed down anytime -- signing a guy that hasn't played in a couple years it's it's a low risk -- potentially high reward. Kind of situation the at the other one interesting thing about him is. Scoring the Oregonian dot com he's going to attend if he is even ready to play is going to attend game substance suspension. Waiting for mine is -- starts playing resumes playing yeah."

" So even assuming that he's healthy and makes the squad and all glad he can't play for the first ten games of the season exactly based on the report that you guys had so the Celtics have. Made at least well what may be their only offseason move that -- have a whole lot of parts to more around on this team after the success of last year but Darius Miles signed by the Celtics. We generally the terms and conditions because. While they don't ever tell you about that stuff and we'll see if they do. We find out some stuff later on so that's the Celtics news of the day."
