Boston Celtics ready to sign Carmelo Anthony?

The 19-year veteran would help the Celtics have reliable scoring off the bench, according to Perkins, who recently appeared in a video segment with Brandon Robinson from Bally Sports. It's probably reasonable to argue that Perkins is correct regarding Anthony's offensive productivity. He averaged 13.3 points and 4.2 rebounds while playing for the Los Angeles Lakers last season, shooting 44.1 percent from the field and 37.5 percent from outside the arc. 

Boston might have a guy who is still effective offensively at the age of 38 by signing Anthony. Anthony might play a crucial bench role in the Celtics' NBA Finals run if he seamlessly integrates into the team's style of play. It would be a fantastic way to cap his career if he decided to retire after the season by taking home a ring in Beantown.
