Attached is a list of players who played last year in the NBA, but have not played at all this year.

Some are injured or overseas, but most are probably retired due to no contract offers.

Anyone on this list jump out to you as someone we have not considered to fill the last two roster spots on the C's ( Opened by the cassell and Obryant trades)?

Well OKC had an extra player, but instead of buying out Smith, they cut Sene.
I remember watching his highlight reel, but never saw him play in the NBA, my guess is that he could replace O'Bryant, but not really help any other way.

of the guys on the list:

Bonzi Wells - Pierce really needs a backup
Jason Williams
Stephon Marbury

Where did you see that they cut Sene? Seems like websites don't care about posting transactions anywhere.

I wouldn't read too much into it; they needed to clear the spot, and maybe they couldn't negotiate a buyout in time...

Sene hasn't been officially waived. The only thing that has been reported is that OKC are expected to waive Sene.

I wonder who the Celtics plan to sign as a temporary replacement for KG? All they need to do is sign someone who can at least play some solid defense as a reliable complementary player.

We don't need another project. We need to bring in veterans even if we need to toss the youngin's out in the cold. Except for Bill Walker he's going be pretty good.

Nesterovic
J.Smith
Wells/Stackhouse
Marbury

Hmmm seems like with KG out our only option is... Antoine Walker!

Joe Smith and Marbury, I can deal with Bobby Jackson instead of Marbs but other wise we are screwed.

That would be great, but I don't think we would address our big man problem since he plays like a small forward.

Are the Celtics interested in Robert Horry?

Sporting News: "Celtics, Lakers could be interested in Robert Horry"
