Easy!

Perkins Back Up: Haywood from the Wizard
Pierce Back Up:  Outlaw from Portland
Back Up Guard:   Delonte from the Cavs

That's it!

Bring me those three somehow and I can guarantee you a banner at the end of the season without major injuries of course...

id love to have brendan haywood here.  though after hiim being injured this year i think washington actually has an appreciation for what he brings to the table.  we might have been able to swing a trade for him last year.

No, he's just kinda expendable in a way...assuming that Houston does try to cut the salary of one of Mgrady, battier or artest.

I'd also like to see Sheed in green.

And Marcin Gortat. He's a FA -- though I assume a restricted one, and Orlando seems to like him. Still, I'd like to see Danny at least make a run at him (if that's at all possible; I'm an ignoramus when it comes to the salary cap).

No order:
David Lee
Shane Battier
Ryan Gomes part II
Gerald Wallace
Josh Smith if he's coming back to league

Why can't I think of any guards?

The first two players we need to sign this off season are Glen Davis and Joe Smith.

After that, we try to rob someone with the now expiring Scalabrine-Allen-House combo. I mean rob, as in put your hands in the air. Targets like Deng, Barbosa, and Rip.

If that works, a veteran point like Lindsey Hunter or Brevin Knight would be perfect. Maybe resign Mikki as a fifth big.

If it does not work, I really think Von Wafer, Keith Bogans, or Anthony Parker would be great fits as the first wing off the bench.

In either scenario, I would love to take another O'Bryant style flier on Morris Almond.

I'd love to have Haywood and Outlaw.  Delonte West goes into bouts of depression when he has to accept a backup role (remember his pouting on the bench when Telfair was the starter and then again when Rondo took his job and then the depression in Cleveland when Mo Williams was acquired?), so no thanks to West, he thinks he's too good to be a backup.

Not sure if Haywood would accept such role either, but if we got him, I think we'd be the favorites to win next season.

I would love to have Delonte back, but he is now a starter and will stay where he  is.  The other I would like to see back in Green is Chauncey Billips.  I realize he is a starter (good one, too) and will not be coming now...but maybe in a couple years as a backup to Rondo....unselfish team player....(If not for Pitino he might still be a Celtic.)  Ah, well...dream on...

Center: Brook Lopez - Just imagine how him and Garnett could be starting together, that is the best big men front count IMO.

Power Forward: LaMarcus Aldridge - I would like to see him starting(Instead of Perkins of course), but if not come in for Garnett when he goes to the bench. Don't really see the Blazers letting go of him now, still I think he would fit in very nicely.

Small Forward: Gerald Wallace - Could come in for Pierce and will settle for a role player.

Shooting Guard: Brandon Rush - Man this kid can play! I would really love to see him in a Celtic's uniform. If the Pacers don't want him then we have to go after him if possible.

Point Guard: Chris Duhon - Great backup point guard for Rondo and has a bright future ahead of him.

Others I would like to be a Celtic -

Brandon Bass

Jose Calderon

Kelenna Azubuike

Andres Nocioni

Luis Scola

Marcus Camby

Steve Blake

Andris Biedrins

Delonte West- 6-3 Guard, Obviously is already a former Celtic but i want him back. Can play the one or the 2. Has shown great improvement in shooting percentage while in Cleveland. Scrapper, he will do what he has to do make a play. In my opinion would be the perfect replacement for the Eddie House role (not as good a shooter, but a better ball handler)

Career- 10.2 PPG, .446 FG%, .375 3PT%

I couldn't agree more.  Who wouldn't want Diaw's versatility? Or Bell, who is an absolute gamer?  That was a great trade for Charlotte.  Two perfect players for Larry Brown.

Others:
Definitely Delonte. 
Andre Miller
Battier
Jameer Nelson
Chauncey Billups
Rasheed
Varajao
