List of new guys that not many would cry if were traded away, waived , or just left

Crawford - can score, but rarely had plus stats on the floor. Also retarded move after game 5 that still has left a sour aftertaste

Randolph - Admired his "rocky" like effort a few games this year. But couldn't keep it up and went back to being ineffective. Worse case keeping him as a practice guy for the bare min, might not be a bad idea

White - don't remember you one bit

Wilcox - Alot of flash but little substance. Multiple bonehead plays, looked lost out there at times and never saw him play with much intensity. Will start his new career playing in europe or china next year.

Lee - Worse thing was that he looked like he didn't give a [dang] when he was benched and not playing in the playoffs. Tradeable and at worst wish to get a 2nd round pick back


previous celts that would be welcomed back imo

Barbosa - Brilliant in the absence of Rondo. Looks like almost certain will be brought back, and lead the 2nd unit, if he is healed from his injury

Nate Robinson - Don't think the bulls will let him go easily. Has played very well in the absence of Rose.  Looks more mature now. If Barbosa for whatever reason won't be brought back, nate would be #2 choice

Pietrus - Pietrus screwed up by being overconfident in his value, got paid min to play for the Raptors, and just was riding the bench for the rest of the year. If the celts offered min, i bet he would be screaming his way back today.  Very good body for a sf/sg, excellent defender and three point shooting would be a welcomed addition again.

Tony Allen - Grizzlies will give him 6 to 7 million a year to keep him. And he will prob stay. His game has matured even further since leaving. Still a great defender and better at picking his spots on offense. Could play sf/sg. It would be a welcome site to see opposing players having to deal with Allen and Bradley

Ryan Hollins - I know some hate that dumb choking incident, but outside of that, he was a very good role player for the clippers as he was for us briefly the year prior. 7 feet, has wicked speed and surely will come in next year ever stronger. Brings little to the table, but plays with great energy, excellent help defender and does quite a bit of the dirty work.

Jason Collins - At least when Chandler was on the court, Collins could of neutralized him better anyone else not named kg could of. Even to a certain extent would of slowed down Martin, at least foul him hard and make him earn it on the free throw line. As a super role player , mentor and vet, it would be an easy choice to bring him back for the min.

Nothing times nothing = nothing.

Dream on these two.   Nate was not a favorite of Doc and Hollins got playing time by default.  Steamer beat him out.

Randolph definitely never just became "ineffective". He just stopeed getting in games when the playoffs started.

What did you expect from Courtney after getting benched, pout on the sidelines?

He was professional and became a cheerleader.

Shavlik and Jordan could have played a bit more in the playoffs. We lacked rebounding and scoring and that's what both are good at. Probably would have made little difference, but we would have known a little more about their future here.


I'd like TA and Barbosa back, but TA obviously isn't coming back. Barbosa is possible if we unload another guard, assuming he can return by January. Chandler did basically nothing the entire series other than slap loose balls to half court. Collins wasn't needed last year and won't be needed next year. Nate can't thrive under Doc like he can elsewhere. We'd overpay for the production he would give us. Pietrus for depth only. No on Hollins, just no.

I don't agree with that statement...Lee handled being shuffled like a professional. How was he suppose to act on the sideline? Was he suppose to visibly show he didn't like being bench? Had he done that then people would be saying he's a bad teammate and a cancer.

Tony would be great, but he's in a better situation in Memphis and they're making noise in the West.

I don't think TA and Nate will be affordable at this point. Their stock are high at the moment.

I want Pietrus and Barbosa back for vet min. If there are no useful bigs, I don't mind Hollins back. Collins? Let me think about it.

I would retain Twill and Shav. These guys could help us compete if the are developed into our system.

In the current roster, I would drop White, Crawford, Wilcox and Lee for a right pieces.

Didn't care in a way like "hey i'm getting my 5 million a year, oh well". The guy never focuses to take his capabilities to the next level. Its the same story year after year, minus his rookie season. Why do you think this is like his third or fourth team now in the nba.

And i'm not stating he pout, but not be all relaxed. You think if pierce, kg, kobe was benched like that, they would be happy? At least they would make it up by playing better
