Assuming that they'd play approximately the same role, which Magic players would you like to see on the Celts?

Obviously, we'd all like Dwight Howard, even if he'd basically be a super garbage man here (I can't imagine ever initiating the offense with Dwight).  The only other guys I can say that I'd want are Gortat and Redick.

This Magic team doesn't impress me at all; I'm shocked they won as many games as they did.  They just seem mentally weak, with no response to adversity.

I would like Redick to be in our rotation. He's a poor man's Ray Allen and improved his defense recently.

Dwight Howard.  I mean, come on.  Perk's great but Dwight is still the best inside defender in the league.

 For me Roy, Price and value considered. Peaches! As Chuck says.

 Or M. Pietrus. Love his defense and three point shooting, his strength and athleticism.  Would have gave hire more run if I was Stan.

Gortat - Anderson - Pietrus - Bass

All quality role players I'd be happy to see on any team.

I left Anderson and Bass off my list, because they're not seeing any time.  Both are good players, though.

Pietrus doesn't overly impress me.

Reddick for sure.

His stroke is REALLY nice.

Gortat, Howard, Reddick, Nelson and Peitrus would all be fine additions.  In truth, Carter and Lewis would be welcomed as terrific backups as well.  Barnes, Bass and Anderson too for that matter.

The only players on that team that I'd consider for the starting lineup is Howard.  the rest would certainly serve as good bench players.

I think Dwight Howard might be an okay addition  ::)

Yeah. I would say reddick.

He's been the best player on the Magic this series. He just has. Which is weird. I can't even wrap my head around it, but I know its true.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

Pietrus' 3 pt shooting, defense, and athleticism all provide a great spark off the bench.  He'd be #1 for me.  Gortat #2, then Reddick.
