Tacko Fall is not being signed because of his talent right now. He is being signed because of is now perceived as being a fan favorite. Maybe he can prove his game with experience later, but drawing fans is important, too. I hope it works out for him, an any of the leagues.

Domination time. The next Thabeet.
Thought Thabeet was a bust? Dikembe Mutombo maybe?
Man, he aint gonna be Mutombo. But he will never be the bust Thabeet was either. Ugh, still can't believe we drafted him number 2.
And passed up Stephen Curry for Thabeet.Ugh.
and James Harden.
I guess it could be worse....Twolves picked 5 and 6....picked 2 PGs....neither of which was Steph Curry who went 7th.

Its an Exhibit 10 contract. He's being signed to be training camp filler and a G League player that isnt on a 2 way deal.

Na, what I mean is that Tacko was signed to an Exhibit 10 deal in June. That was the creation of this thread.
When seeing the thread title, I thought the thread title was fresh meaning that Tacko got signed to a full roster deal.

I was thrown off by the thread title, too. It has nothing to do with a lack of knowledge of basketball and more to do with me not following the NBA all that closely. I used to be a huge Orlando Magic fan, but my fanaticism pretty much died when I saw that the culture of the league was heading in a direction that I felt I couldn't support. I think Jason Whitlock summed it up best in a column he wrote several years ago about the direction the NBA All-Star Weekend had taken; wanna-be gangsta rappers all over the place and other nonsense. I also like the rules and style of play in college basketball better than in the NBA. You all support or don't support the NBA as you like, it's cool; I'm just throwing in my two cents.

Celtics just announced they signed Tacko. I'm not sure if that means something different that the first contract he got?

Can't find any news articles on this.
I know he's been blowing up in the media, been a fan favorite for summer league.
Celtic fans have been pretty supportive of him getting a roster spot soon. A lot of the coaching comments have been on needing more development. Taking my black and gold glasses off, he seems more like a fan favorite vote than an actual NBA talent. Celtics have an older fan base and really like the Big Men of yesteryear.
Personally, I'd love to see him get a roster spot. A shoe deal would be cool too. I'd rock some Tacko's
