Bingo. He must have got off the grog something chronic cause he looks a totally different bloke to last year.
Alcohol free Vin could be very useful to the Celts.

The guy with him is supposedly Emeka Okafur, a lottery pick for the draft.

Is Vin Baker back? :confused:

Regardless, I sort question the authenticity of the pic. I tried going to the actual link of the site and it's one of those articles where you have to pay/register. But who knows? I heard Vin was pretty motivated for the coming season so it may very well be legit.

Just thought I'd bring this thread back up after Vin's opening night.

"I went down to see him at the hospital and we had a talk and right then he was already talking about tonight, when he could get back," Celtics coach Jim O'Brien said. "He admitted his difficulties and he basically said, 'You can count on me next year. This is all going to be behind me.' So, yeah, I'm very, very proud of Vin Baker."

Having lost 20 pounds and looking lean, Baker was welcomed back by the FleetCenter crowd, which gave him a loud cheer in pregame introductions and a standing ovation when he left the court in the fourth quarter.

"It was the most special night of my career. That ovation coming out of the game was just a tremendous moment for me and my family, just the best night I've had as a player in the NBA," Baker said. "I'm so appreciative of the fans and the opportunity tonight, I'm just overwhelmed."
