on the post game press conference . Said he wants the big 4 to come back because they know how to win . I would resign both  Ray and KG on 1 year deals, but we have to have enough money to resign green and another legit big .

He could be a great 6th man. But we have to get a free agent that can help. No more o neals....or bums

Great.

Bring em all back and we'll lose to Miami again next year in the 2nd round.

If KG and Ray really want to win another chip for the C's, they'll man up and take bet min deals.  It's the only way they can come back and still allow the team the ability to aquire the necessary players to boost the overall abilities of the team.  We need a 2nd bananna (to Rondo).

on 1 year deals? Our young guys and draft picks get playoff experience , and we still have a bunch of cap room in 2013 when D12,Josh Smith , Ibaka,Hibbert, Eric Gordon, Millsap, Big Al become free agents.

 I wish this wasn't true, but I believe this as well. I think the ship has sailed.

absolutely agree, Didnt eric Gordon say he will test free agency this year? Is he worth near max money to team up with Rondo and Bradley in the back court and give us a Harden like presence ?

Yes, bring them back. Just add enough young guys underneath them who can handle carrying a bigger load all season.

You add Jeff Green, Wilcox and Bradley to this team and I say we're into the finals this year, Bosh or no Bosh.

Bradley's D on Wade would have allowed us to load up more on LeBron.

Bring him back.  Bradley's timetable is that he will be ready in October and the Celtics need some insurance in case that gets pushed back.

Probably. Don't bring them back and we won't even play the Heat at all however.

I think the Big 3 need to finish their careers here. And have change to win another championship. They're the kind of experienced veterans every contender wants. Doc needs to find that perfect balance of youthful energy and veteran savvy the Spurs have so we can get a great regular season record. All these road games take a toll.

Not sure that's a bad thing.

Rebuilding and looking forward to a future would be a lot easier than yet another year of getting beat by the most hated team in sports.

I can't take losing to Miami for a 3rd straight year, and the days of Pierce/Garnett/Allen competing with Miami are over.
