Man I'm p---ed we've basically got nothing good on our roster. Our roster looks worse than last year. We've basically traded Davis for a guy who plays like Davis. This sucks.

in fairness to brandon bass, he's like an athletic glen davis who actually can shoot (he doesn't just think he can).

I am surprised at how everyone is overlooking the JO wrist injury for which he refused to have surgery on at the end of the season. Can't wait until the injury flares again and he has to sit out a long stretch. The Celts really should not depend on JO for anything this year. I know I am not.

and here we sit - still without a legitimate starting center.

i'm just so glad that Danny unloaded that young, top 3 defensive-center-in-the-league while he could for that "stud" swing player that will be coming off our bench (you know the guy we just signed for one season and wanted to trade recently)

Green wasn't going to be included in the West S&T.

It's true we're relying on Jermaine O'Neal and Chris Wilcox at center. Not much hope if O'Neal goes down.

Close but no cigar.  I just heard IND was the top suitor now.

He recently said that surgery would have meant his career would be over, due to the lengthy rehabilitation process. That's why he opted against surgery.

No worries we got KG to play the five now, oh and he's also going to do more scoring this year. =/

the rosters not finished, and we still have the mini MLE. you have to imagine Danny is going to go after another Big and a Shooting guard
