With Davis out of the picture

New Orleans may be moving Holiday sometime next year in a full tear down.  I think if Irving is gone that means Rozier should be kept.  Something like 4 years 55M (13.75M annually).  After the moratorium on free agent trades ends, send him with Guerschon(3.1M) and enough salary (20th pick and 22nd pick rookies = 5M) to get Holiday.  Throw in Okafor and other scrubs to make it work.  Adding Holiday to this lineup really fills out the depth nicely.

What do you guys think?

Let go of Rozier. The guy is not a PG and Im fed up with his 1 for 7 performances from three in vital playoff games.

Hope DA moves on from his rozier infatuation.

Problem is all reports indicate NOP are keeping Holiday. And rozier at 13 million is a negative value contract.

I don't think the Celtics should trade any assets or tie up cap space in win-now players.  The Celtics are now all about The Jays.  Any players the Celtics acquire should be affordable short-term placeholders, or they should be players on a similar timeline to The Jays.


To be clear, Holiday is a really nice player.  He would make the Celtics better.  But he wont' change the Celts from a non-contender into a contender.  My feeling is the Celtics should be all about stockpiling and developing assets until they are able to draft, develop, or otherwise acquire a player who is good enough to make the team a contender.
