Aren't the frekaing Pistons gonna buy out Ellington? He's the guy I really want. He could help Nesmith with his confidence and teach him the ropes and help us this year. 10 points off the bench, .429 from 3. That's the guy I want. Outside of that, just start Bobby, hope that he doesn't break down, play Pritchard big time minutes and limit Smart's FGA(no idea if that will ever happen).
Honestly I’m fine with the way the Celtics are right now for the rest of the season unless Olynyk or Horford becomes available which is extremely unlikely
Considering everything, I think OKC tries to trade Horfie for value, which I have no idea how they gonna get. His contract is massive, he's still good and a guy I'd love on our team, him and Bobby would be fantastic to watch, but that contract is bizarre. If Horfie gets bought out in the summer, I wouldn't be shocked if he comes back. We love him and I think he has love for Boston, too. He knows the system and we were inches from a Finals appearence with him as our starting center. Horfie/Brown/Tatum/Smart/Prichard/Fournier/Bobby with maybe Ellington and another solid vet should who can score 10-12 pts a game should be enough for us to make a legit Finals push in the East even with Nets fully healthy. With Horford, and our current roster, we'd be an elite defense, I mean easily top 3 and the offense should be flowing the way it used to. Horfie's passing was underrated and underappreciated, it made our offense FUN to watch.
