Boston Celtics reportedly satisfied with small forwards, not looking at James Posey

Perhaps Danny Ainge is looking for a shooting guard or a center, since the Celtics more or less don’t have a backup at either position. I’d still like Boston to pursue another small forward — read my post about the need for Marquis Daniels to remain healthy — but at this point Posey might not be as productive as Sasha Pavlovic (*dodges full beer thrown by Celtics fan*). And...

Report: James Posey To Be Amnestied By Indiana

If Posey was to come back to Boston it'd have to be after he first cleared waivers, then cleared through the bidding process between all the teams under the cap. I expect that with his age and lack of production he'll make it through clean... but do the Celtics actually want him? Posey isn't the same player he was back in '07. He really only is taking three pointers...

As expected, Pacers to use amnesty on Posey

For those who don't fully understand the 'amnesty clause' in the new NBA collective bargaining agreement (CBA), it essentially allows each team in the NBA to shred ONE existing player from their roster for salary cap purposes. This player must already be on an NBA contract from the date the CBA is brought into effect and the clause can be utilized at any time during...

Indiana Pacers 2010-2011 Player Review: James Posey

Remember when James Posey arrived in Indiana as a side piece in the Darren Collison deal and everyone said he could be a hidden gem? A guy considered a key to Miami and Boston's championship runs, Posey was expected to be a leader on and off the floor, provide solid defense and timely three point shooting.But as often is the case when highly touted players arrive in Indiana...

James Posey Sets the Best Picks

Can I just ask how that happens? Seems like it would have to be intentional to get the hooking action with your finger there. I guess when your team is out of the playoffs like James Posey’s Hornets squad then you have to come up with creative ways to keep up your interest. Too bad Stephen Jackson had to be on the wrong end of the extension. Classic photo courtesy of Weed...

Introducing the NBA Booger Cam

If I were forced to select my favorite player between James Posey and Stephen Jackson, I suppose I would have to go with Posey. The guy clearly knows how to set a pick.

James Posey Will Not Be Part of the Pacers’ Future

Last summer, the Indiana Pacers made a solid trade to get Darren Collison and James Posey and shipping off Troy Murphy in a four-team deal with the Rockets, Hornets, and Nets. Collison would end up being a huge difference as it appears Indy has found their point guard of the future along with George Hill coming off the bench. James Posey showed himself as a leader in the locker room...

James Posey Has the Pick Down, But Where’s the Roll?
