I wonder what number Joe Johnson is going to wear with Boston this time around. When he was a rookie he wore #31, but that has since been retired for Cedric Maxwell. – 2:54 PM

Saw Joe Johnson in Big3 earlier this year and that guy was clearly one of the few who could still give am NBA team a solid 5-7 minutes. Fun to see him back for one last ride with the Celtics – 1:39 PM

The Celtics traded rookie Joe Johnson on February 20, 2002.
The 19 year, 305 day gap between his stints with the Celtics is not only the longest in NBA history, it’s longer than the entire career of every NBA player but five (Carter, Parish, Garnett, Willis, Nowitzki). – 1:23 PM

Lots of PTSD about 2001’s Joe Johnson for Delk/Rogers trade including…
—Phx gave Bos the choice of including JJ or Kedrick Brown
—We threw in our 2002 #1! Phx took Casey Jacobsen #22.
—Tayshaun Prince went next at #23.
—Didn’t re-sign Rogers, traded for Vin Baker’s Max instead. – 1:01 PM

At 40 years and 176 days old, Joe Johnson is the 2nd-oldest player in the NBA right now (Udonis Haslem is 41 years and 196 days old).
Johnson’s first career game came with the Celtics vs the Cavaliers on Oct. 30, 2001.
Tonight, Johnson returns for Boston to face the Cavaliers. – 12:42 PM

What if Joe Johnson to the Celtics started a trend?
If every team signed one player who was a rookie for them in 2001-02…
Spurs: Tony Parker
Bulls: Tyson Chandler
Warriors: Gilbert Arenas
Grizzlies: Pau Gasol
Nets: Richard Jefferson
Wiz: Kwame Brown
Let’s go full early 2000s. – 12:23 PM

With vets like Joe Johnson, Isaiah Thomas and Lance Stephenson returning as emergency callups, which retired ex-Raptor do you most want to stage brief comeback? – 12:00 PM

One day after the anniversary of James Naismith introducing the game of basketball, the Celtics sign Joe Johnson.
Joe had 12 points in that game. – 12:00 PM

If Joe Johnson plays for the Celtics, something has either gone really well or really poorly. There is no in-between. – 11:06 AM
