We obviously miss Nate but he won't fill the void that House left! so were gonna need some sort of a shooter to play behind Ray!

There's no more room in the rotation. Robinson and Daniels will be our featured backups behind Rondo/Pierce/Ray. Danny's made his decision and these are the players we are going to go forward with.

Nate would have helped tonight a lot, he allows that extra floor spacing for our post up second unit.

I agree.
2008 we have these 3point shooters (or could shoot treys): Ray, Paul, Posey, Sam Cassel, House.

Now: Rey Allen and Pierce. You may want to add Nate but he is not a 3 point specialist unlike House.

It's gonna get clogged inside I tell you all.

yes we do. thats why i keep lobbying for Raja Bell to be bought out and signed here. There will be playing time, because of injuries or sucky play like last night from the bench.

Raja has defense, and a hatred for Kobe. He also like to shoot the three.

How is he not a Celtic yet :D

Are you crazy, OP? N8 might not hit threes consistently, but when he goes on a roll, boy, it's basically over for the other team. And one can imagine he could really get on a roll in the playoffs, where he will be the first time in his career.

Rondo can shoot 3 pointers! He just needs to take them.  Not a lot I mind you, just the ones where he is wide open.

But anyways, Nate can shoot.  Hopefully we pick an extra shooter off waivers.

We need a back up SF/SG who can shoot, yes. Raja Bell would be perfect but I doubt GS buys him out...

A lot of people do give credit to Nate. Im telling you if he is wide wide open he is going to knock those threes down. And he has that attitude that if you don't think he can do something he will do it. And a lot of people are saying hmm i dont like this deal for Boston so I think he is going to come out with something to prove.

Again, someone who wants another shooter please explain to me how he fits into the rotation...

I think the weakest link in the Celtics 10 player rotation is Tony Allen and that is where we could upgrade some through picking up a buy out (maybe Miller or someone like that).  I suspect that Danny will try someone just to see if we can get lucky.

As for Nate, I am glad he is not just a shooter like House.  Nate can penetrate and otherwise create his shot in many more ways than Eddie and probably can stroke it from 3 nearly as well.  Nate will make the whole second unit better.  He can handle the ball and he can defend better than House, freeing up the other guys to do their respective "things".

If anything we need a 6'10" or taller rebounding body to deal with Jamison, Shaq, Rashard, Dwight, Bynum, and Gasol.

Our backcourt is fine.

I dont think we need another big guy! im just waiting for Glen to get his top form back and he did play some great defense against LA last night! my problem is Rasheed! he forces the issue!

the other guy who really sucked was Daniels! he didnt even take a shot! and this is why i think 1 more veteran that can spread the floor is a must! Raja Bell is the best thing i can compare to House! he plays with alot of passion and heart and was the heart of the Phoenix Suns! i love that guy!
