Boston Lineup
Howard/Wilcox/Stiemsma
KG/Bass/JJ
Pietrus/Pavlovic
Pierce/Hill/Daniels
Jack/Bradley/Moore
Celts get great defensive minded team that could contend this year. Moving forward, KG re-inks for less money allowing room for Howard and other marquis FA. Green steps into starting lineup at 3.
Indiana obtains Gordon who is rumored to want to play for home state Pacers/seems to have no interest in signing long term for NOH. Gets versatile 6th man in Ariza. Kaman expires at end of season, leaves room for multiple free agent signings.
Orlando gets 3 fringe all stars 2 of which have expiring deals plus mid 1st round draft pick in loaded draft. Move Turkolu for draft pick or back up big.
NO gets stud PG in Rondo and 1st rounders to go along with certain top 5 pick in upcoming draft. Landry, O’Neal, Bellinelli, Dooling’s deals expire leaving tons of cap room to build around Rondo.
The New Orleans Sterns probably say no. It was fun while it lasted.
