Mark Bartelstein, the agent for free-agent guard Dan Dickau, said his
client will decide by the end of the weekend whether to accept a
training camp invitation from the Celtics. Dickau played 19 games with
the Celtics in 2005-06 before training his Achilles tendon and missing
the remainder of the season. Dickau would be in heavy competition for
the third point guard spot with players such as Lester Hudson.
What the hell is Dickau waiting for? A multi-year offer from the Lakers (or Clippers for that matter) isn't coming anytime soon.
When the soon-to-be champs come calling, you jump at the chance. If I was Danny Ainge, I would have pulled the invite within seconds after Dickau said - "I need to think about this."
It's possible Dickau wants to stay home and stare at his wife all day.
It looks like we're the only ones concerned about the 15th roster spot, because Doc Rivers isn't worried.
“I don’t know if we need to fill that spot, really,” Rivers said. “There’s no rush. We’re not going to play 15 guys. We’re not going to play 12 guys. So I don’t think that’s a big a deal for us at all.”
