I gotta follow Roy Hobbs and say #44, Danny Ainge.

He can't deflect Wyc again after he brings yet another banner to Boston.  He deserves it and has earned it.

I'd like to see it.  I'd like it to happen so he can shove it in the faces of those that booed him on Cedric Maxwell night, when Max had his number retired.
Does Ainge's GM success contribute to his number being retired?  Because I'm not sure it should be retired based only on his playing career.  If he played on the 90's Celtics he would be kind of forgotten about by now.  It pains me to say this, because he is my alltime least favorite Celtic, but I think Antoine Walker should have his number retired before Ainge the player. 

I think Ainge's GM success has gotta be an influence in the decision.  As only a player, no, he doesn't deserve to have his number retired ( although he was a heckuva player in my eyes ).

I agree that Pierce should be a lock. Personally, I think Ainge is most likely, and probably a sure-thing if we win another c-ship. I really don't think any of the players listed deserve it until they have been a part of at least 3 c-ships. There's only so many numbers and we must set the standard high.

call me a pessimist...but i say noone listed...

if rondo stays for 10 years and makes some ASGs and wins at least another title.

The celts have retired too many numbers.  KG and Allen will at most play 5 years here. They need more rings for any chance
Looking for a Sig designer....obviously i will be greatful with tps.

Looking for a Wire - Rondo theme....PM with ideas and I'll tp
