With Posey, the Hornets instantly become a much more physical team. They gain a player who has been in the playoff wars and has two championship rings to his name. Posey may start or he may be used as the team’s first player off the bench.

The Celtics will miss Posey’s toughness and heart. Even more of the overall leadership next season will have to be handled by the Big Three of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. No longer will they be able to lean on Posey’s experience.

In terms of fantasy basketball, Posey won’t have very much value. He likely won’t play huge minutes and even if he does, most of his contributions don’t show up in the stat sheet. For that reason, this move is much bigger in terms of the NBA rather than fantasy.
