What's your take for him? He had some nice games in NBDL.Do you think he is any good and will be a part of Celtics' rotation next year ?

If they resign Cassel which seems to be the case he won't get that many minutes next year either. maybe the year after that.

Ainge may be looking to package him for a veteran

I think he will get TA's and House's minutes next year.

Honestly, nobody knows and no one will even be able to give you an educated guess until the season's over and our intentions become a little clearer in FA.

I really doubt he gets traded though. Pruitt cant have much trade value and Ainge's track record shows that he never sells low. He should still be in town next season.

I think he'll be back next season, especially since we don't know the situations for Cassell/House/TA coming back. I'd like to see him become a bit more aggressive taking it to the hoop -- he has deceptive quickness and appears capable of creating his own offense (something which is a luxury to have for guys coming off the bench).

I think Cassel is done. He might join the coaching staff or something. He's already won titles and made a lot of money.

Pruitt will be back purely because of his upside. Plus, he's capable of playing both the 1 and 2. House may be dealt because tony allen is a better backup 2 gaurd, and house isn't a point.

If we bring in a vet, it'll be a Darrel Armstron-esque point gaurd that doesnt look for his shot like Cassel does.

Powe isn't being traded, he's arguably a better player than Perkins right now.

He reminds me a lot of Ray in that regard.

He's so smooth with the ball that it almost looks like he's moving in slow motion.. then all of a sudden he's split through the D and going in for an easy layup. His games damn fun to watch.

Yep, they're gonna want at least 2 1/2 pg's on the team, and Pruitt increases his chances by being a little House-like: able to shoot and play a little 2. The other 3/4 of a pg, or whatever, is sure to be at least a semi-veteran though, so they have some experience behind Rondo.

I think Pruitt's chances of returning are better than those of any one of TA, EH, or SC, and I think Danny's still satisfied with him as a prospect.

We shouldnt trade Powe, him and Davis are perfect for the make up of our team.......and no, I wouldnt trade Powe and whatever for Hibbert either
