I wish we had grabbed up Len or Kaminsky. Either could've been had for next to nothing.   would've been nice to have a 7 footer that could matchup against bigger centers. Both those guys can shoot from outside.
Thing is, I think Len and Kaminsky are just terrible NBA players. All they are is tall. If the Celtics wanted to give bad NBA players who are real talk some minutes, Brad could simply play Tacko.

They can both shoot from outside. Kaminsky is a solid passer. Len was 9 and 9 in his last game with the WIZ and Frank was 12, 13 and 8 in his last with the Suns. They both are solid bench players.
Have to respectfully disagree with you here, my friend. I don't think either guy is better than any of our current three centers.

Len baffles me. He will look like a revelation in a game then lay eggs for the next ten. He's a tease guy. You see him in one of those good games and think you hit gold. Then he absolutely sucks for the next 3 weeks 

As for Kaminsky, if people thought Kanter was bad defensively in Stevens system, well......they might get sick watching Kaminsky in it.

Your criticism is valid and both have warts and uneven play but either one is a good end of bench big man. Kelly Olynyk was also an up and down big, who occasionally played big.  With all the injuries we've had already and that we seem to have every year, I think you want some solid end of bench bigs. I would've taken either guy for the minimum. I also would be curious to see what Brad could get out of either of those guys.
