I would be in favor of Danny bringing Shaun Livingston in. How many 6"7' pg's are there out there? No Birdman, I don't know why there are a lot of supporters for this guy. Did you see him last year he was completely useless when he came back. Elson or Ratliff would be my choices. If Kwame will take the minimum grab him. I do not know much about Elson but he did help San Antonio get a ring. Ratliff and Kwame are good defensive players, Birdman dunks and brings comedy off the bench no thank you.
After Posey My wish List:
1. Shaun Livingston
2. Eddie House
3. Kwame Brown
4. Dooling
5. Brent Barry
I left off Zo and Kurt Thomas because they are not coming here.

I think they sign Birdman for the vet minimum, and look for the best PG they can find at the vet minimum (whether it is House, Cassell, or otherwise).

Then they will save a little money for later in the season to fill another need if either Birdman, the PG to be named later, or Giddens/Walker don't work out.

I think ownership is close to maxing out on what they want to spend this year, and they want to take advantage of the league help that comes with the vet minimum.

I'd be worried about acquiring Bonzi Wells. He seams to leave crushed/burned bridges in his wake every year. I think he could be worth a gamble at the minimum, but thats it. ...Even then I'm not sure. I'd rather have Ross, Evans, or Tony. Bonzi would be next on my list at the 2 though.

Although I like the idea of keeping Posey, he seems to be loosing some of his mobility. I still think it is critical to have a Giddens or Walker - some athleticism - to back him up or play alongside him in the second unit. Hope we sign at least one of these guys. Would love to see Giddens turn out to be an upgrade over Tony A. Perhaps Walker can be convinced to play in europe. Don't really have a strong preference about House or Cassell; but don't want both and would take House in a pinch. I say a big man has to be the next priority.

1. Posey
2. BIG?
3. House
4. Giddens
5. Walker
6. _______ (Space for Cassell or young PG)

Rondo  House   Pruitt
RAllen Giddens ______
Pierce Posey   Walker
KG     Powe    Scal
Perk   _____   BBD

Of course you can sign Cassell/young PG right now and use House or Pruitt at the 2, but pierce can also play the 2

I think things are going to plan for Danny once we sign Posey.

I don't want Bonzi Wells anywhere near the Celtics. Really Bonzi Wells? You've got to be kidding me. He has a problem wherever he goes! People may say he won't pull this kind of stuff with PP and KG in the locker room but why even open that possibility. He's not that good.

Sign Birdman, House.
