Roster Count

[byennie]

Rondo, Dooling, Bradley
Allen, Daniels, Moore
Pierce, Green (?)
Garnett, Bass (?), Johnson
O'Neal

That's 12 plus Gilbert Brown invited to camp... maybe 1 signing for the minimum, and 1 for the mini-MLE still coming?

[theswitch]

Danny's done a very solid job so far with Dooling and Bass, two guys who are plus bench players, cheap and potentially coming off the books this season. I expect to see Green resigned shortly as well.

We're going to have to be patient with the center position and free agency, as the market develops once Nene, Chandler and Gasol are officially off the board and guys like Kwame see what their worth is. I expect the mini-MLE to go there, along with 1-2 other vet min big men who can play PF and C, and maybe another vet min shooting guard - Delonte would be great but it sounds unlikely.

[Who]

I don't think E.Moore should be counted as a roster spot. I expect him to be waived before training camp ends. Well, maybe a little after due to this funky lockout offseason.

Fesenko still available

Ainge did a fine job with the scraps he had.

Moore will be signed for sure. It's been said that it's extremely likely they'll sign Brown. They could have drafted Brown instead of Moore so why would they think Moore is better than Brown but then sign Brown and not Moore?

Also, Green is not signed yet...although it seems likely.

[hardlyyardley]

No way Moore gets cut

[diconzo]

Danny has really done a good job so far without using the mini-MLE. I'm allll for the Bass/Davis swap. Bass may be listed at 6'8", but he plays big and is athletic. Unlike Big Baby who couldn't jump and was more around 6'6" (Look at pictures of him next to Ray Ray)

[toneskeet]

They see Moore as a George Hill type potential.

[Jack_Frost]

I wandering: do we have the mle if we sign and trade green?

E’Twaun Moore, the No. 3 scorer in Purdue men’s basketball history, has agreed to a guaranteed contract with the NBA’s Boston Celtics. “Yes, that’s true,” Moore said in a text message today. Mark Bartelstein, Moore’s agent and chief executive officer of Chicago-based Priority Sports, said Moore will sign his contract tonight and will be in camp for the Celtics’ opening practice.

Compared to anyone he's worthless. He's just not a skilled player at all. He has size and that is where my praise ends.

Great news, I think he'll actually end up being a great pickup for the 58th? pick.
