Walker's back in the Beantown Green. And rightfully so. If there was one man who really wanted to be a Celtic until the day he retired, it's Walker. Paul Pierce might be a skilled player, but he's no leader. Walker, on the other hand is a bonafied fire-starter. Sure, he might throw up a shitload of shot attempts, but if it means that he'll be able to light a fire under Piece and Davis, heck, it's ALLL GOOD.
Walker's like a prodigal son. He and Ainge certainly have had a bitter history, with Ainge criticizing Walker's abilities in the court before trading him. Walker was pissed at Ainge because he really loved the city of Boston, and wanted to spend the rest of his career in Beantown. I think Ainge is right to bite the bullet and take Walker back, if only for one season. (Antoine's contract ends this year). And I think Walker's matured as a player and as a person... he rode the pine in Dallas and was on the worst team in the worst possible city in Atlanta. Now he's in a team with a legitimate shot at the playoffs. Hoorah.
3-0 winning streak for Boston since Walker came back! Whoohoo!
