Boston Celtics Tickets - Adding Michael Finley Could Help Boston's Playoff Hopes

It appears that Michael Finley is soon to land with the Boston Celtics, who are in need of adding some help to their roster as they gear up for a run in the playoffs.  With Kevin Garnett still not playing at the same level as before his injury and Paul Pierce banged up as well, the Celtics are in need of another scoring option.  Even at age 37, Finley might just provide a little bit of help, though it's a move that won't address the problems of an aging roster that the Celtics will have to deal with in the offseason.

For much of his career, Finley was a prolific scorer who frequently averaged more than 20 points a game for the season.  After his dominant scoring days were behind him, Finley made a smooth transition to being a bench scorer, helping the Spurs win the NBA Championship in 2006-07.  The Celtics seem to believe that he can bring his silky jump shot to their squad to bolster their lineup heading into the postseason, after the Cavs added Antawn Jamison to their lineup recently and the Magic continue to be a prominent team in the resurgent Eastern Conference.

But adding Finley to the lineup doesn't address the Celtics' general lack of athleticism throughout their lineup – something that even the lower seeds in the playoff push like the Milwaukee Bucks and Chicago Bulls seem to have.  Finley may provide a viable scoring option for the Celtics off the bench, but it still seems that the Celtics are a team on the downslide after winning the championship a couple seasons ago.

What the move does do, however, is confirm the Celtics' desire to win this season, which should continue to keep Boston Celtics tickets as one of the top ticketing options around the NBA as we move closer to the playoffs.  The Celtics also added Nate Robinson to their lineup, who can light up the scoreboard, and Finley could round out their bench moving forward, though there is no denying that Finley is no longer the same scorer that he has been in the past.

The need for the Celtics to win now is a pressing issue for a team that has a trio of older stars in Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.  With Allen's contract expiring at the end of the season, it seems certain that he will be out of Boston and it's unclear what the future of Garnett will be as he continues to recover from a significant knee injury.  After winning a championship following the 2007-08 season, the Celtics have since been surpassed in the East by the Cavs and the Magic, not to mention the up-and-coming Atlanta Hawks, who continue to improve.  With point guard Rajon Rondo developing into one of the top point guards in the league, the Celtics clearly sense that they have the talent level to head deep into the playoffs if they can add a couple of pieces that fit well with the ones they already have.

Michael Finley may not be enough to help the Celtics win another championship on his own, but it proves that the Celtics are not content with just a playoff berth and a first round exit.  Adding a veteran with championship experience and the willingness to play a role on a team with a plethora of stars certainly cannot hurt their chances.  If he can make just a big shot or two in the postseason, signing Finley will be well worth it for the Celtics, who could be facing rebuilding seasons following this year.
