Wow, Vin looks like he put in a ton of time to get into game shape. I hope this pays off for him and he has a great year, perhaps even an all star berth in the vertically challenged eastern conference.

Baker showed off his newly sculpted physique, outlined his fitness regimen and said his "lift" was back.

Hopefully he can be productive for the Boston Celtics this season

He looks like the Vin Baker who made the All-Star team a couple of times as a Buck, and once as a Sonic. In time, he might get an opportunity to start.

Baker and Battie would be nice upfront, Battie at Center, he blocks more, he's a better defender, Baker is more offensive . Nice combo.
. Nice combo.

I hope that he gets to the all-star game would be nice to see him there

looks like he stopped drinking and started smoking instead. Man his face looks like the Baker of old, but his body is damn skinny! Was he this skinny before?? Good luck to him, hope he has a good season. I for one said I would believe the rumours when I saw proof, and damn, here it is!

Damn, what a nice surprise! Wish him the best... Would be good to see this guy averaging something like 14/7... For sure...

good for him .....I always respected his game and I hope he can deliver as he used to do in Milwaukee again

Now that you mention it...might have to look at some old basketball cards and tapes.

I really doubt he'll make the All Star team.
14 points and around 5-7 boards sound decent, hopefully he'll be able to stay away from the bottle.

Haha Thats what I was thinkin'
Not only did he get skinnier, but I think Paul Pierce put some bulk on.

He's definitely skinny, but a bit too skinny, I'd say. He's skinnier than he's ever been but he doesn't seem to have much muscle like in Milwaukee. I'm glad he got on a diet, but it doesn't seem like he's been in the weight room much.

He never really was that strong. He always was carrying some baggage with him...now that he lost it, you see his real body. I think he'll play great! His greatest attribute before was his quickness as a forward, not his strength.
I really look forward to seeing him play.

this Dallas Boston trade will probly be more beneficial to the Celts than Mavs
Mavs will have complications whilst Celts have Vinny WHO ACTUALLY PLAYS IN THE POST unlike some ppl *cough *cough*........Vinny can be great for the Celts, and even seeing him play last season he showed some signs of brilliance, whenever he wanted a rebound he'd get it but those days were few and far between but looks like he's back 4 now
