Strike three.: Vin Baker suspended again for noncompliance. This time, indefinitely. He's this close to being terminated by the Celtics.

I'll bet the Celtics are just drooling over the prospect of voiding that awful contract. Sure, they'll put on the concerned citizen front for public view, but I just know Danny Ainge is rubbing his hands together. Glee, pure GLEE.

where did you get that from? A mis-reading of the italics, one imagines. I feel bad for Vin, but from a team standpoint, they'll be so much better off without that contract. And a solid draft pick.

It's too bad. Hopefully he can get clean. This guy put the University of Hartford on the map. Remember the days when New England could boast some good hoops teams? Now you've got UConn and............ even the glory days of UMass seem like ancient history.
