We obviously need to add some quality depth to our bench.

With what $$??

Sheed. Find a way.

With three max contract we will be adding minimum vet player like Voskhul, Lue... LOL

We can trade Ray Allen for 2-3 solid player and the team we trade him to buys him out and returns to the C`s...

We dont have the MLE?

Split the MLE between Sheed and Marbury, offer LLE to Grant Hill for 1 year...bang....

^If we trade Ray this team will only win 50 games next year, count on it...

Sheed would be my pick, right now you can see how not having another legit big is killing us.

Hakim Warrick, Sheed, and Robert Swift. C's need some length and depth... Swift of course should be a POB type of signing..since he sucks. Also C's need some kind of swingman.. Desmond Mason? Grant Hill..I dunno.

**** A, we haven't had any mentions of Swift in forever and *now* you bring him up,Pete?

Ray Allen must stay!!! I love him... (no homo)

extend Rondo and Big Baby
sign Chris Anderson and Ron Artest......

Sheed would probably be the best bet for this team. It would actually give them an offensive bigman off the bench.

that they'll take it. If so, I'd do this in a heartbeat. Gather up the best of the just-over-the-hill's and go full bore at #18.

Switch up Andre Miller for Marbs.

I am pretty sure Miller can get more money elsewhere. Celtics do not have much money to worth with. They will get another POB type player.

Rasheed!

No doubt about it. Excellent help defender and will improve us moreso defensively. Plus we get a guy who can give us more depth at the front court.

I'm interested to see what happens with Marbury. I just can't see Marbury really wanting to stick around to backup Rondo. The lack of minutes/rhythm is simply stifling Marbury's game which is no surprise. PG's are usually rhythm players. But who'll want Marbury though? If he comes back I think he'd be much improved.

Sheed is a need for this team. He gives you a Davis-Scal-PJ Brown in one player. I've had my questions about Sheed in the past but it's been made brutally clear that the Celtics need another big, physical player down there. Resign Davis at around 3-3.5 million per and you're GOLDEN up front with KG, Perk, Sheed, Davis, Scals. One year minimum to Powe and you add some depth, toughness and inside scoring.

I sure as heck hope that the Celtics win tomorrow night against Chicago!

Birdman would be nice.

See, there are minutes for Marbury at the 1 and 2 - Eddie House is awesome situationally, but I'd rather have a 100% Marbury playmaking at the 2 alonside Rondo.

I fully believe that 99% of Marbury's struggles are mental right now - he is just thinking way too much because he is fearful of doing anything that will get him criticized. A full TC and pre-season where Doc can walk through the offense and give him plays that are "his shots" will return the confidence back to him and he'll excel.

Marbury can get 25+ mpg as a 1/2 combo guard and he will be allowed to jack shots - I think he's the best value as a backup PG on the market because he just won't command big money.

Sheed is a lock to go to SA or BOS imo - if Boston wants him they can pay him whatever SA will pay him and his relationship with KG will help the cause.

Hill may want to retire down in Phoenix, but he may be swayed to join BOS for a year because of how close they are to a title relative to Phoenix.

Regardless, there are multiple options on the market this year and Ainge is sure to put some competitive offers out there because the talent is much, much better than last years FA pool.
