who do you think will be more important for the celtics coming off their bench if they are to win an nba title this year. Both cassell and posey are veterans/ present day role players/played with superstars/title winners. Obviously how the big three play will be crucial, as will rondo's play. But who is more important for them between posey and cassell?

well Posey will do more. But Cassel will have few big shots in a game every 5 games.

right now I'd say Posey because he'll actually help us defensively and Cassell will get limited minutes because he can't play defense so far...

this is very similar to the argument of Ray or Pierce for the Celts.

Posey, his defense has been very important for the celtics this year. House can do some of what Cassell does, while no one else off the bench does what Posey does.
