I want to see......

Zeller
Sully
Green
Bradley
Turner,  lots of Evan Turner.  if this guy settles down a little and doesn't lose the ball, I think he can be a real asset.  also would like to see a lot of back and forth substitution between Zeller and Olynyk to see who's got the hot hand.  NO RONDO, use Phil Pressey but no Rondo!!!

If Ainge doesn't trade Rondo by the deadline, he is a fool.

this depends entirely upon the possible return. it must be more valuable than the benefit of simply having rondo's salary go away and providing salary cap space.

but in any case, how about we actually stick to the point of a thread instead of once more devolving into another rondo battle. there are plenty of other threads for that.

so, my suggestion for the starting line up is:
zeller
sully
green
rondo
turner

when he behaves and uses his head and follows stevens' directions, turner is a good player who can create a lot of offense.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Since it hasn't been posted yet:

Brad Stevens says that he may tinker w/ rotations tonight, but will still with the same starting five (Rondo, Bradley, Green, Sully, Zeller)

You had a typo. Fixed it for you.

Evan Turner stinks.
Hopefully he's gone by the trade deadline when some sucker team sees his contract as a bargain- it's got to be the reason Ainge signed him to two years.

He's arguably one of Ainge's worst signings next to Jason Terry and Jeff Green.

Move him for an expiring+a 2nd round pick.
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

rondo *
bradley (next to bench)
green *
sully
zeller


* denotes only guys who are hands down starters, sully is close but I think bass has been playing well enough you can insert him into starting lineup for same results/stats

How was the Jeff Green signing bad?

People attacked it at the time, but Green definitely lived up to it. He's a tradeable asset on a solid contract.

Yeah, when a guy is receiving considerable interest from other teams and will opt out of his current contract to make even more money, I think you have to say that the signing was a success - even if it wasn't of monumental proportions.

Some people expected him to make the leap to become a bona fide star, but that was never going to happen.

I guess if you expected that, then it was a bad signing. But I think we got a fair return on that contract
