Danny Ainge publicly shopped around with Ray Allen so what makes Powes agent think he was assured a contract for next season. Sucks he farked his ACL but thems the joys of professional sport, at least all the other teams know that he has enough heart to play through a major injury and still compete against the best which will no doubt help him get a contract elsewhere along with the fact he has a ring.
He would be a very affordable asset to alot of teams.

How can they set a timeframe to winning another championship (ie A short window to win)?

KG and Ray Ray are both close to done one or two more years and its time to look at rebuilding.

I think its a little early for his agent to be coming out laying the boot in. Last I heard, at the end of last season, Doc and Danny both said positive things about Leon and that they would like to 'look after him' by giving him another minimum contract while he rehabs. But they didn't say resigning him would be the first order of business!

Basically, the Celtics will make all the moves they need to first - like trying to resign Davis, attract a FA 4/5 backup, a FA 2/3 backup and hopefully resign Marbury to backup the PG spot.

Once all that has happened, from what I've said I think they will do what they can to offer Leon the last roster spot for min. dollars.

Also, let us not feel too bad for the guy - he has made around $1.4 mill over the last two years, so he can hardly plead poverty!

I'd love to see Leon return - and hopefully for the Celtics - but his agent needs to be realistic about where the Celtics priorities lie right now.

Also, ESP, what makes you think the Celtics can't compete with the Cavs and Magic next season? There are a lot of good FA's on the market right now and all the Celtics need to do is snag two solid ones to be right at the top of the East next year.

Lest we forget that the Celtics went very close to knocking out the Magic minus KG and Leon! Health is the only question mark standing in the way of the Celtics being contenders again in 2010. You can take that to the bank!
