i expect that terry would start at the 2 until AB returns...then you play whatever scrubs you have (moore, christmas, etc) as his back up


at this point boston has 3 spots left...back up PG. SG and a big...keep moore, resign peaches and find a cheap big

1. rondo
2. AB
3. JET
4. PP
5. KG
6. Wilcox
7. Bass
8. Sully
9. Green
10. Melo
11. Johnson
12. joseph
13. moore
14. TBA SG (Pieatrus)
15. TBA Big

problem is there a lot of project/young guys in that roster (sully, joseph, melo, JJJ, moore)

I wouldn't call Sully a project. He's going to produce right off the bat. Obviously, not at what will be his career high numbers, but I see him going 10-15pts 5-8rebs in 20 minutes or so.

The way I see it we only have 2 remaining rotation spots to fill- the starting SG while AB is out (who will become the 3rd SG when AB is back) and a C for injury-insurance (and rookie-insurance).  So really we have just 1 rotation spot to fill, and then we need one big guy for depth.

I think that Terry will be our back-up PG- Rondo eats up all but 10-11 mpg there anyways, so Terry can take all of those minutes and still play 10-15 mpg at SG.  Add in AB's 20-25 mpg (when he's  healthy) and we're left with ~10-15 mpg for the guy we get to replace Bradley (probably Peaches, which I am OK with).  While AB's out Peaches will have to play significantly more (around 20-25 mpg) and E'Twaun/Xmas/Jamar Smith/whoever will have to step up and fill that 3rd SG role.

As far as big men go, I see the min breakdown looking like this: 96 mpg total
30 mpg for KG
25 mpg for Bass
15 each for Sully and Wilcox
5 for JG at the 4
5 for Fab Melo/JJJ if they earn it [JG or Bass can eat these min if they don't]

So I disagree with Danny- I don't think we need another big man, except for injury insurance.
