Given Danny's recent history i'd say that chances are pretty low that we enter the playoffs with the same 15 man roster we start the season with. With buy outs and a number of good players still on the free agent market i'd say there will probably be some minor shake ups. We could see something similar to what happened in 2011 when Harangody and Erden were traded to make room for more proven veterans.

No major trades but i wouldn't mind seeing Joseph and Christmas/Smith(Whichever one makes the team) shipped out to make room for Ryan Gomes and Carlos Arroyo, two guys who aren't spectacular but have played here before and provide depth and experience.

Rondo/ Terry/ Arroyo
Bradley/ Lee
Pierce/ Green/ Gomes
Sullinger/ Bass/ Wilcox
Garnett/ Millicic/ Collins/ Melo

Agree on Arroyo, but Gomes is an undersized 4 more than he is a wing.

Offense sells tickets, Defense wins games, Rebounds win championships.

I say pit Christmas, Smith, Joseph, and Downs against each other in a high stakes four-man rock, paper, scissors tournament.  Two survive.

My ideal playoffs roster would have the team not needing to make any deals because Avery Bradley is healthy and someone like Joseph or Christmas steps up and provides better production than you can get from your typical declining veteran who is available after a late-season buyout.
