I always kind of liked Jason Terry when he was on the Mavericks. I liked his energy and his enthusiasm. Of course, when the Celtics played them, that kind of got a bit irritating, but I still liked him. He was always a classy player. Now that he's on the Celtics and I'm learning more about him, I'm even more impressed.
First there was the press conference where he sounded so genuinely happy to be a Celtic. And the fact that he held off signing while Danny tried to work a sign and trade to be able to also sign Courtney Lee. Then there was the twitter profile photo of Jet in a Celtics shirt, pointing to the Celtics logo, when they announced his contract signing. He was so enthusiastic and willing to do whatever it would take to help the Celtics win. He talked of going out to work out with KG and start building chemistry. The guy knows what it takes to win.
Then, there was the tattoo. In the offseason before the Mavs won the title, Jason

Video: Jason Terry "can't wait" for opening night
CSNNE:
"Until last year, when Miami won, the average age of an NBA championship team was 34 and up, and so that goes to tell you that you have to have that veteran experience, that leadership that knowing guys have been there before. And so, that's why I like our team. You got that with a good mix of young guys and you got yourself a championship contender."

Jason Terry is more KG than Ray
ESPN Boston
Let's get one thing out of the way: Jason Terry is not Ray Allen.
In fact, personality-wise, the two stand at opposite ends of the spectrum. Both are accomplished professionals, undoubtedly, but where Allen is reserved and stoic, Terry is loud and energetic. In fact, if you're looking for a model to gauge Terry's enthusiasm, look no further than Kevin Garnett...
Jason Terry probably won't start in Boston
So Courtney Lee will probably start at the beginning of the year. Not like this should really come as a major shock to anybody. In a recent ESPNBoston interview, Terry makes it clear how much he loves that sixth man role.
"For me, in Dallas, it was like, they do the starters and everybody gets their name called. Well when you're the sixth man, and they check you into the...

Jason Terry: The Boston Celtics are "going to win again"
Who am I to argue with Jason Terry, the man who got a tattoo of the Larry O'Brien Trophy on his biceps eight months before his team won the actual, real-life Larry O'Brien Trophy?
You could say that Terry got the tattoo back in 2010 as some sort of guarantee that Dallas was going to win the NBA championship that season. In hindsight, it looks pretty good. But I'...
