 Turner was the true Swiss army knife for the Celtics.

 10 points 5 rebounds 4.5 assists doesn't sound like much but he had some real big games for us.

 With Bradley out Turner can fill in at the shooting guard position, he can also play point guard, and is also big enough to guard small forwards.

  We miss him bad right now and that post I made just yesterday about us lacking card that I completely forgot about Turner's departure.

  That was a big difference in our team last year and he was also an underrated leader and Veteran. We're missing him right now big time.

It didn't hurt as much as if it had been us who gave him that kind of money.  I would part with him again and again if that's the kind of money he's asking for.

But you're right, he's missed

I always said when I left the Celtics, I could not go to heaven, because that would
 be a step down. I am pure 100 percent Celtic. I think if you slashed my wrists, my
 blood would’ve been green.  -  Bill "Greatest of All Time" Russell

The problem is our bench. With Smart starting, there is no real play maker in the 2nd unit. Rozier can't really be counted running the point.
