he could hotbox the bench

he could play with josh howard

I'm feeling a little sick right now.

I thought they named the D league after him...

Potential with out a purpose. This cat was like Odom. I used to have a high opinion of him. Now I hope he can just recover and do something.

Why is everyone laughing about this? Before his injury, he averaged 14 points and 5 assists per game.

i did not know that they had great POT in boston

he got hurt and missed a year???? I didn't notice.

Ha, the contract is ridiculous, funny they would have to pay him but it won't count against their cap. I'm not surprised he tried out for the Celtics, he must still idolize KG.

Another reason why making kids wait a year after HS to go to the NBA is a GOOD thing for the league

he would've NEVER have been drafted that high........
therefore would NEVER have been given such a large contract afterwards based on his 'potential'

I agree with jgb..These kids used to come out so early and a couple of them arent playing anymore or was a fluke(i.e. kwame brown)..I hope Darius does well.

At least you know if he played in Boston he MIGHT actually start to have a decent career, OR be gone QUICKLY. He could not be the selfish, desruptive and ineffective player he has been since he has been in the NBA if he was on the Celtics.

I hope Boston signs him, if he is healthy although I dont like the guy. I like to people ressurect their careers from the trash heap.

I didn't realize he was even still around. Well I hope he can fully recover and start to build on his career. Good luck to you Darius.

A great career has passed him by.

It shouldn't take long to find out whether this is something to be concerned about or not. More important than his knees, are serious character issues. But he's only 28, and may have experienced some maturity in the last 2 years. Being that he's due to make another $27 million, he doesn't have to work. It's possible he's there because he wants to be. Let's wait and see.

This is Vin Baker on a comeback.. bad knees... pot head...inconsistent... sounds good for a championship gone bad... Seems like the Celtics are having an Isaiah Thomas Knicks era moment...

I never pay sttention to age- in these type of players
I pay attention years in the league
he has been in the NBA for 6+y

People don't just change......he is not the sharpest knife in the drawer,
has not been known to have the best work ethic and his game is 100% athletecism

I have minimal confidence he will ever be an effective player in the league.

The price of weed must be going up!

Darius Miles should have honored that St. John's committment.
