The Boston Herald is reporting that Rasheed Wallace will accept the Boston Celtics' offer and join the big three in green next season.  This seemed to be Danny Ainge's plan A, so Celtics fans should be happy, especially considering the big moves made by the Lakers signing of free agent Ron Artest, the Cavs trading for Shaq, and the Orlando Magic's addition of Vince Carter.

"An NBA source said tonight forward Rasheed Wallace has committed to sign with the Celtics Wednesday, the first day free agents are eligible to sign.

'Once (Wallace) had a chance to reflect on everything, and realizing
what his objectives are, he just decided this was the best fit for him,
all the way around,' said Bill Strickland, Wallace's agent...

The Celtics All-Star trio of Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce,
owner Wyc Grousbeck, coach Doc Rivers, and president Danny Ainge met
with Wallace last week. Wallace turned down overtures from Orlando and
San Antonio to commit to Boston."
