Bet You Can't Guess Who Worked Out for the Celtics, and Apparently Looked "Impressive"!


    I'LL GIVE YOU A HINT - HE DRIVES THAT CAR

    That's right- Darius Miles!!! Of course, Miles had a great game back when the Garden was called the Fleetcenter, the McDonald's All-America game, where he made Neil Fingleton look like Neil Fingleton. Perhaps that performance is still singed in the brains of the Celtics front office, all I remember from that game is being worried that Kevin McHale's bodyguards were going to bury me in a shallow grave. Seriously folks, he travels with a bigger and scarier entourage than any gangster rapper, and they are not amused by high schoolers squealing "Mr. McHale!" at their Frankesteinian employer. Anyway, why the Celtics are really working out Miles is anybody's guess, but this paragraph suggests it is just to screw with the Blazers:


    This has well-chronicled implications on the Blazers: if Miles returns to the NBA and plays in 10 games in a season, during either of the next two seasons, his salary will count against the Blazers' salary cap. The team is responsible for paying the remaining $27.25 million of his Blazers' contract, but it does not count against the team's cap because his knee injury was labeled career ending.


    Miles is in the NBA Emotional Baggage Hall of Fame and his knee basically doesn't work, but kudos to the Celtics for taking a chance on a guy that once had the cachet to appear in Van Wilder with Michael Olowokandi.Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2008/07/bet-you-can-guess-who-worked-out-for.html
