Danny has got to tell Stevens its time for the young guys to get the minutes. Don't get me wrong I love me some Brandon Bass all out hustle every game. But after the Rondo trade and everybody has had time now to calm down and play together . Nelson is playing on borrowed time as he will most likely be dealt at the deadline or bought out.Green if we can flip for the right package also will be gone. Young Smart Kelly Sully and Zeller need to be getting time together. This is the future we are talking about. Danny could still add more pieces by helping out contenders at the deadline by taking on a bad contract for next year and get more picks if that is needed.

ainge is trying to get the most possible for these players. the trade deadline is coming up in about 7 weeks and i expect ainge to be active towards the end of february. until then, we have to suffer through the awkwardness of watching the celtics' "dead men walking" being put on the court each game.

i console myself by saying it is almost over, almost over.
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.

Im with you, on a somewhat different mindset.

I believe that this weird rotation thing will keep going until the trade deadline. After that we'll start playing the young guys heavy, with a solid set of rotation as there's no need to showcase any more talent at that point.

The package was post-marked August 23rd. Everyone who watches basketball had the tracking number. Expected delivery is 2015 NBA Draft.

As of now, I think we only have 1 first round pick and 3 second round picks in the 2015 draft. Then our added lottery pick. I'm not that excited, unless we can find a way to trade a bunch of the 2016/17 picks we amassed in order to move up in this year's draft.
