First-round picks Jared Sullinger and Fab Melo and second-round choice Kris Joseph all signed contracts yesterday morning, meaning all three will play their first games as Celtics this weekend in the Orlando summer league. The Celtics also added some familiar names to what now is an 11-man lineup, including Craig Brackins, a 6-foot-10 forward and 2010 first-round pick (by Oklahoma Ciy) who played for Philadelphia last season and spent a lot of time with the Celtics’ Development League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws.

Looks like brackins will be playing with the Rooks for us in Orlando. He couldnt hack it in Philly but was a 20 - 10 guy in the D league. He had Jason Thompson/Aldridge comparisons coming out of the draft and is a long athletic forward that can run with the young guns in a couple years. Any interest in giving him a minimum deal letting him sit for a couple years with us and see what he can do in three years?

Rondo
Bradley/Moore
Green/Joesph
Sully/Brackins
Melo/JJJ

In three years could that be a lineup thats exciting and in contention? Too soon to tell I know...

hardly any room on the roster for our own 1st and 2nd year players.  not too much interest in another project.
