Celtics Roster News and Updates

[Polish Post]

Christmas / Joseph / Downs / Johnson / Melo would be a beast D-League lineup! (yes I'm joking and yes I know we won't get JJJ)

JJJ was taken with the 1st pick in the d-league draft... He's a Mad Ant now... Good luck JJJ...

Red Claws took Shelvin Mack... I liked his game at Butler...

Doc's oldest son Jeremiah Rivers was taken in the 5th round by Maine... Thats funny...

Figured I'd post it here...

[xk4]

If anyone hears good stuff about Melo or Mack later on please share. I follow the D-league as closely as the WNBA

Was def an expected move, but hated the pick felt we should have gone with Perry Jones

I said it prior to the season started and I will say it again. DA has set this team up perfectly for a acquisition at either the mid-season trade deadline or after the season...

Without getting anyones panties up in a bunch these are some guys I see as to who might be being shopped at the deadline.

Dirk Nowitzki
Emeka Okafor
Tayshaun Prince
Al Harrington
Andrea Bargnani

Personally i want Rudy Gay, but i know its not a perfect fit with Pierce. Trade Jeff Green and draft picks (probably good ones) for him.

Josh Smith could be nice too and everyone has been talking about trading for him for a long time.

Realistically neither of these will happen, but they're probably bot going to be on the block.

I'd love Rudy Gay.

would Bradley + Green + a pick be enough?

Shift PP to the 2guard

Rondo/Terry
PP/Lee
Gay
Sullinger/Bass
KG

I'll take that team.

Rudy Gay's teams are better when he's off the court. Don't want him.

Im playing the homophobic card! Lol but i dont think Memphis is actually better without him at all.

[Lucky.]

Rudy Gay is a chucker.

50/50 on Gay. I'm not sure on what I'd be willing to give up for him either.

I've wanted Josh Smith FOREVER, and I was pissed when we gave Bass a 3 year deal over the summer.

Let's be honest, he's got that sweet jumper.....and that's it. He can't play D well and he doesn't rebound.

Over the summer we should've signed and traded Bass, one of our first round picks and our 2013 first round pick for Smith.

The one mistake Danny made over the summer.

[YoungOne]

big al back here would be great

Bass is one of the best defenders in the NBA. Truth.

Alright, but those stats show how good he is in point prevention, pick & roll and rotational defending. He still can't rebound or block shots. He still doesn't have an offensive post game.

^honestly, who would you say is better?

Josh Smith is better across the board
