As far as I know, no one has picked up James Posey yet. I think he'd be a terrific veteran pickup. He's a solid defensive player, who can use his rugged body to bang around bigger wing players, and he's also versatile enough to hit three pointers.
Getting Manuel and Wallace may pay dividends in the future, but our window of opportunity is now. We've got to add better players to our current roster, and James Posey would be a really good addition.

I'd love to have posey, but he's going to be way to expensive for our blood. He just opted out of a 6miilion dollar a year deal with miami. I think he may have overestimated his value. because them market is just about dried up, but he won't just settle for what were offering.

He may lower his asking price if he wants to be a big part of championship run. He'll be used a lot on this team.

Right now, our number one priority is to get a Center and I think we still need to get a point guard becaus House is more of a shooting guard.

Right, I don't think House was brought in to be our backup PG. I feel Ainge may still go after a PG to help Rondo. Yes, we definitely need another Center. Big men are like potato chips--you just can't have enough. I'm fine with Mutombo or PJ Brown, but I would certainly like to have someone better than them. I just think that James Posey will help our wing position. We're all hoping that Tony returns to form, but its good to have a veteran like Posey, who's been to the Finals, who can help our depth. Seeing how Wallace and Manuel aren't going to help us much this year, we need more than just Tony Allen anchoring our backup wing spots.
