Sounds like we are done.

I took that to mean they weren't done trying.  But they are probably done.

Also, I wouldn't read into the Sully move as a sign we are about to make a deal.  Our roster is at 13 with only two spots left for Sully, Zeller, Zizic, Yabu, and our three 2nd round picks Dingus, Minkis and Lingus.     I assume Zizic and Yabu stay overseas.   Maybe we bring back Zeller and keep one of the 2nd rounders.   Letting Sully walk probably had more to do with our roster being overloaded and the team wanting to move on from him.
Sounds to me like we are not done.  The front court now lacks another big body with Sully gone.

Amir, Olynyk, Horford and Mickey prob will get those minutes.  Crowder could possibly play some PF in smaller lineups.

I think we're done. The only thing left to do is trim the roster down to 15.

I mean, I doubt any big moves are going down, but with Ainge you never know. 

I do expect a few small moves here and there.  We need a center.  Someone serviceable who can at least do a respectable job against the large, plodding centers of the league like Brook Lopez.  And we also need shooting.
