"Free-agent center Jermaine O'Neal said Wednesday that he expects to sign with one of the three following teams in coming days: Dallas, Denver or Boston.
'Those are my favorites,' O'Neal told ESPN.com 'Those are teams that are going to compete [for a championship] next year.'"
The Celtics are chasing anything over 6 feet that moves. O'Neal turned in a terrible performance against Boston in the playoffs - averaging 4.2 ppg and 5.6 rebounds, while shooting 20%. However, his numbers were significantly better in the regular season where he averaged 13.6 ppg and 6.9 rebounds.
