What's your biggest concern at the moment with our team in our attempt to win the championship. Be it roster, depth, talent, quality of players, chemistry, play calling, health, defense, offense, bench...

At the moment I'm quite comfortble with our roster, I don't think the additions coming forward are going to make or break our team. Huge concern with health, though some of it was alleviated with the recent trade, but health concerns will always be there regardless of the year, not much you can control on it.

Right now my biggest concern is with Big Baby and how he has been playing. Since last year he has become the biggest black hole in our team and has become a ball stopper. What happened to him? When he came in, he was a very good ball mover with us.

He's doing what I used to complain mostly about Powe about. I really hope people in the locker room let him know how much of a ball hog he's being, but I don't think it's happening. And with additions of Jeff Green, I don't know if Baby being in the floor with him will devalue any impact he might bring offensively.

So, what are your concerns?

Just health ... especially the two O'Neals. It would be painful to lose a title because of (injured) role players.

I'd like to see another PG brought in to backup Delonte West in case of injury. Doesn't need to be a big name like Bibby or TJ Ford, just someone more reliable than Avery Bradley.

The health and effectiveness of the C position in the playoffs.  


That position should give the Celtics the advantage over Miami.  It helps neutralize the big men of Orlando, LA and SA.

The price of gas/oil. Paying the mortgage. The wars. Union busting. The killing of protesters in Libya. Not necessarily in that order.

Health and it's not even close.

If we don't get one of the two O'Neal's back for all of the playoffs then we won't even make it out of the east probably.

Health, or the lack thereof, of the O'Neals and Delonte

The ability to work a bunch of new guys into the Celtics system in 25 games and have them firing on all cylinders for the playoffs.

Jeff Green becoming comfortable in a bench role.

health and depth at C and PG.  Neither Delonte nor any of the Centers (other than Krstic) can seem to stay healthy enough to play.

Is there really a debate here?  We have no inside presence at all.  And the guys that we do have aren't durable at all.

Health. If we have Shaq, JO, Kristic and the rest, Banner 18 is ours.

The biggest concern is obvious no?  He's 7'2" and 300+lbs.
