It seems that like last year the Celtics are going to wait until the end of free agency and then pick up what ever they need at bargain basement prices.

Here are some of the people I think will be possibilities: Arroyo, Livingston, D-Miles, Snyder, Kwame Brown, Magloire, and Barnes. I'm sure I am leaving people out, so help me out with other possibilities.

I'd like to see someone be bold and predict who these last minute signings will be for the Green.

Cassell, Darius Miles, Kirk Synder, and that's all folks.
God bless and good night!

I wouldn't take Miles or Snyder over Tony Allen. No way. TA is a proven defender in this league. He has way more value on a team than Snyder or Miles ever would.

I'd like to see Livingston, TA, and the best physical trainer in the world to the C's for 5.6 mil

Wait Cassell, what position does he play? Is he a center, you certainly can't be talking about Sam Cassell, it must be someone else.

I'd like Miles and TA, both at the Vet Min, and Posey.

We can cut Miles if he sucks, and TA is a good defender.

Can he backup the point?

Also, I love TA, but he is done in this league.

I don't think TA is done, my prediction for TA is that he signs somewhere else and strings together a season where he plays close to how he did for that amazing week before he blew out his knee. If we don't sign Posey he suddenly gets more minutes and becomes very useful.
If we do sign Posey I don't see the need for another wing player. If we sign Posey I would like us to fill out our Roster with Kwame Brown, Livingston, Arroyo then either D-Miles or have Bill Walker stick around.

He would be on my short list if Posey goes elsewhere.

I don't get it.  It's July 12th.  How is that waiting until the end of free agency?

I still think we get at least one of either House or Posey.  We also got a big, so I don't think we're into doing a lot with free agency, unless there is a sign and trade involved.  I just don't see Danny panicking and signing people just to do it.  He always seems to have these long term, short term goals.

i agree but all the best defenders are already gone najera pietrus etc but he has loads of playoff exp and is clutch he could probably play 20min off the bench

Actually, the closest thing you can get to Posey at this point is Tony Allen, FWIW. Scary thought, no? :)
