So, your team just hung banner 17.....What's the second thing that pops into our minds in Boston? How can we keep Posey? I'm not sure he'll get a boatload of cash, or at least anything well above the mid-level exception (which I think is roughly over 5 million) but his stock is sky high right now.
What should the Celts do? How many years does Posey want? Man, he was such an important part of our team this year with his shut-down D and ridiculous clutch shooting. I've heard that people want us to go after
Ron Artest. Are these people serious? He's absolutely more money/years from a contract standpoint and if it isn't broke don't fix it. This isn't like the Patriots where you have a huge roster and many interchangeable parts. This is essentially a 7-9 man team so the impact the 6th man has is huge.
I expect Posey to opt-out of his player option and try to cash in, he should; he's already got 2 rings. I just hope we can make a competitive offer and he decides to stay.....plus he has a really cool mouthpiece.
