This just in from Steve Bulpett of the Boston Herald: "Delonte West is coming back to the Celtics. A league source confirmed moments ago that the former Celts guard is prepared to sign a free agent deal with the team. West was drafted by the Celtics 24th overall in the 2004 draft and played in Boston for three seasons before being traded to Seattle as part of the deal that brought Ray Allen to the Green. On February 21, 2008, West was involved in a three-team deal that sent him to Cleveland to play with Lebron James. Accordingly to a source, West will sign a non-guaranteed contract and will be on hand when the team begins camp this fall". I love it.

Obviously some of these guys can play multiple positions, but just something to give you an idea of what we're looking at. Appears to be outstanding depth.
Can't believe Cleveland didn't resign him just to annoy LeBron James since Delonte is dating his mom.
Perhaps they just got tired of trying to make sense of his prison tatoos.
Related to C's but unrelated to this posting - man is this some great Bird: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziM3HHFk1BM&feature=grec_index
Nice to see the Boston teams continuing to load up on the "character" guys.
