Okay, the third year admittedly dampens this news a little bit. But the last three mid-level signings the Celtics have made are Rasheed Wallace, Jermaine O’Neal and Chris Wilcox. Methinks Terry will outperform that terrific trio, by a landslide.

Ya know, assuming Mark Cuban chooses not to match the deal because he wants to keep cap space open for the remote possibility of adding a Dwight Howardian, Deron Williamsian stud.
