KG limps, Ray Ray is slower as the season goes on and has lost part of his shooting touch, Pierce comes and goes. Maybe Rondo and Perk are the only ones playing at the level they are supposed to. And the bench my friend...

Daniels out, BBD sucks, Shelden has dissapeared, Scal is Scal, House doesn't contribute on a daily basis, young kids don't count for Rivers... The only one good piece of news could be Tony Allen.

Does anyone thing we are championship contenders without making any move? I don't, and I can't stand it, guys.

And I forgot, Sheed... No words, frankly.

I think we are still championship contenders, however, PP and KG need burn, whilst Ray needs rest.

Rays shooting slump can only be attributed to tired legs - there can be no other reason.  I dont care for reducing his minutes too much, just give him sufficient rest for a good part of the 4th qtr.

Doc needs to get the bench involved a bit more, despite the possible results.

I think home-court is gone.  I dont think HCA is that big a deal to this experienced team.  Lets get healty and rested first.

The only good thing is that ownership knows for sure that they need to pull the trigger.

I hope so. 

If nothing changes then we're looking at seed #4 and a second round exit, maybe a first round exit if we are matched up with a tough team that's hot at the right time (e.g. Bulls, Bobcats)

It's my understanding that should the C's win the division as expected they'd be no worse than the #3 seed.

I expect Danny to be active in the trade market but I'm doubtful that he'll find anything worth doing. So, not expecting a trade.

I am expecting a free agent signing, or two, via buyouts.

Yeah, if I were to put money on any trade happening, it would be Giddens and cash to a team under the luxury tax and with a trade exception, to open up a roster spot, and save the C's some cash.  Then Danny will do his work with the buyout guys.

And it's not to say Danny won't be looking hard, I just think there have been way too many rumors about teams blowing it up this year, and I think its gotten blown out of proportion.  There just won't be a deal that makes financial, cap, and basketball sense.

I agree with this.

i agree 100%. better to slump now than post trade deadline. i think it is clear the c's need to make a deal or they will make a quick exit in the playoffs. hate to say it because we all love him but it has to be ray allen.

scal, house, ta, jr may go as well, but to make a big splash, it has to be ray.

If there is a deal that clearly offers an upgrade, I believe that Ainge will not hesitate to accept, but I also believe that there is almost no way he will trade for a player with a bad contract.
