Celtics Update

Mark Murphy’s recent Celtics Notebook was a veritable treasure trove of information.

1. Tony Allen was relieved to have his contract extended, which was done in part because of his specialty as a defender.

2. Theo Ratliff is probably going to miss the opener but everybody else looks good.

3. Doc Rivers actually said, “He looked great” in reference to Brian Scalabrine. Weird. Also word on the street is we'll see more Scalabrine than we want because he's an experienced big man. Please get healthy Theo.

4. Michael Olowokandi had to miss practice to visit his daughter who has pneumonia.

5. The Celtics organization is on a sanitation mission due to the spread of bacteria that recently sidelined Delonte West and Paul Pierce. I can’t make that up.
