Vin Baker faces the Boston Celtics for the first time since the team voided his $35 million contract then released him last season, and he's approaching it just as it is just another game. The two sides eventually reached a buyout agreement.
"I can't say anything negative about Danny (Ainge) at all," Baker said of the Celtics GM. "I felt like Danny was a good guy and I don't want to say anything negative about him. I had a lot of conversations with Danny and I think Danny is a Christian guy, an outstanding guy, so nothing personal against Danny at all."
"I'm in a great situation here in New York," Baker said. "I've got a great president, great owner and I've just moved on from that situation. I've got great support here. What's happened in the past is the past now. I'm looking forward. I'm just really fortunate and blessed to have a new opportunity here in New York and I don't want to look back. This is a great situation for me."
