I think we're just three players away (plus fillers) from a truly solid team. To recap, so far we have:

PG: Rondo, Terry
SG: Bradley
SF: Pierce, Joseph
PF: Bass, Sullinger, JJJ
C: KG, Melo

I feel like all we need is Ray Allen, Jeff Green (all but assured), and a solid center like Wilcox.
If we can get that, DA has had a great offseason.

Thoughts?

Would like to see Ainge pick up Anthony Randolph for 2-3 million.

Yeah, he works in place of Moore or Joseph.

Well we know two things for certain.

1-Our starting 5 is back
2-KG back at Center

Then with a strong bench:
Jet/Green/Sullinger

Pietrus should definitely be back,Melo I believe will take Stiemsma's minutes, Wilcox would be great to have back.

Jet/Pietrus/Green/Sullinger/Melo or Wilcox

That second unit is a fringe playoff team in the east.

If you add Allen, Green and say Steisma (he likely will accept the QO), that leaves 2 gaurd slots to get to 15.  We have a TO on E'Twuan Moore and Dooling can probably be had.

I kind of hate to see Sean Williams go (we have a really cheap TO on him).  I would probably keep Williams and let Moore go, adding Dooling for the veteran gaurd depth.  I feel like replacing Moore is pretty easy in any draft but Williams still has a chance to be decent big and thereby harder to come by, certainly at that price.

Like to finish it out with:

Wilcox
Green
Ray of SG
Pietrus

Think we need pietrus when we play miami. he is good defender and can play all over. Doc has to protect PP this season and make sure we aren't dead man walking

I'd rather have Joseph than Moore...cut moore and send JJJ to the D league

Rondo
AB
PP
Bass
KG
Jet
Green
Pietrus
Sully
Melo
JJJ
Wilcox
Joseph
Dooling OR Steamer
TBA FA


That would be my roster..obviously if ray returns you slide him into that TBA slot...let joseph and JJJ spend time in the D league

Things are shaping up nicely so quickly. If Ray and Green return, the 1 big weakness will be getting another center. I would prefer Stiemsma over Wilcox. The C's need some more lumber and shot blocking behind KG.

All the way. Pietrus is a necessity, as is Wilcox if we can't keep Stiemer (my preference). Can't believe JJJ is on anyone's roster... I'm not sure he's strong/talented enough to do anything in the D-league. He's awful.

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.
