organization will eat a guaranteed contract to keep him, sources tell Y!So that means Tony Allen is sticking around. That means the choice seems to be between the two non-guaranteed deals: Lester Hudson and Michael Sweetney. This is something we discussed at length on last night's 2 Man Game. Chuck, amazingly, made a good point: Are people really clamoring to get Hudson? Will he make an NBA roster even if he's cut? Will he get ANY burn with the Celtics? Meanwhile, we've got Tony Allen and Brian Scalabrine who total $5.5 million in expiring deals that could be turned into something later in the year.
