he and scalabrine will make a fearsome duo.
I'm not a big fan of the guy but I know some Spurs and mavs fans were so just thought I'd let you know, he's signed a two-year deal with the Celtics. Details below from ESPN.
Celts sign undrafted West Virginia star Pittsnogle
Associated Press
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Free agent Kevin Pittsnogle has signed a two-year contract with the Boston Celtics, his agent said Wednesday.
Pittsnogle, a 6-foot-11 center who is West Virginia's career 3-point leader, was passed over in June's NBA draft along with Mountaineers teammate Mike Gansey. Both played for the Miami Heat in a summer league, and Gansey signed a two-year deal with the Heat.
Pittsnogle led the Mountaineers with 19.3 points per game last season and was named to the All-Big East first team. He led West Virginia to the regional semifinals of the NCAA Tournament the past two seasons.
"Clearly, Kevin's strength is extending defenses with his range. He's big enough and he's got a quick trigger," agent Dan Tobin said. "He's a unique player, somewhat of a specialist at this point. We're trying to expand other areas of his game and I think that's what's going to help him make the transition."
Pittsnogle made 253 career 3-pointers and his 41.1 percent 3-point accuracy rate ranks second in school history. He is sixth in career scoring with 1,708 points.

Ainge loves his veal. All 500 punds of it.
Poor guy must have been harrassed as a kid with that last name...
good to see we're returning to championship glory again
Y'know, I keep thinking a guy that big SHOULD be able to get his shots off from out there against almost anybody. If he can hi those he might be a useful niche player.
The Celtics aren't necessarily a good match for him, however.
I think he will be better than he gets credit for....definately not great, but servicable off the bench.
