We're still a jump shooting offense team and that worries me come playoff time.  We still don't have a low post presence on the blocks and we have not addressed the rebounding issue.  

Sully will give you want powe/baby gave us and more...and he can rebound....he instantly helps the low post game

jeff green will also...

I think the hope is that Sullinger is that answer. Keyword: HOPE.

I think Green deal is basically done...and Green is letting danny get those other guys locked up before signing him

I also have a feeling dannys gonna go with the youth for rebounding/post scoring...Melo,sullinger,steimsma

Let Stiemsma walk. He's a scrub anyways. We need to pick up Anthony Randolph or Robin Lopez if he's freed from the Suns.

Melo is such a mystery to me that I'd prefer to keep Stiemer and Wilcox (both wildcards themselves, health-wise) as insurance. I can't see him producing this year; it'd be great if he did, but it's far easier for me to envision him bumbling around without a clue of what's going on like Hollins did last year. This may seem neurotic or irrational, but it'd be [dang] hard to let one of them go to me...

Jeff Green doesn't really help the rebounding issue, particularly if he's playing the 4.  But, rebounding in general was less of an issue for us in the postseason.

  I'd like to get Pietrus back to give Doc a taller option at sg.


Add Pietrus and Stiemer and that's a solid 15.

Actually Moore's not yet a lock.

I'm salivating at this roster :

PG: Rondo, Terry, Moore

SG: Allen, Bradely, Pietrus

SF: Pierce, Green, Joseph

PF: Bass, Sullinger, Wilcox

C: Garnett, Stiesma, Melo

So for me it's 5 more signings!

I would let JJJ go muscle his game in the D league and come back next year fight for Wilcox spot...

I will try too keep Stiesma as much as possible!! The kid is a keeper!!

I wanna give a chance to Moore and Joseph (We will see them in action very soon!!)

That's a great squad.

I'd like to upgrade Steamer and grab Krstic or Wilcox...or both if its possible money wise...

Rondo/Terry
Bradley/Ray/Pietrus
Pierce/Green/Joseph
Bass/Sullinger/Johnson
KG/Krstic/Wilcox/Melo


Best possible outcome IMO.

Players remaining who need to be signed:

Ray Allen
Jeff Green
Nenad Krstic
Chris Wilcox
Mickael Pietrus

Not sure the money is there to get all of them signed.  So Krstic, Wilcox, & Pietrus for that matter might not happen.

Thoughts?

We have to get Ray because we can't spend that money on anyone else, especially anyone of his ability.  I think we would be fine without him, but there's no point in not bringing him back.

Personally I would like Stiemer, Wilcox, and Pietrus all back.  I'd let Dooling walk only because I think Etwaun Moore should get his minutes, but I guess that could happen with him on the team too.

If there is a way to get Kristic instead of Wilcox I'd be OK.

Danny is a great GM.
