While the vagaries of the marketplace make it difficult for the team’s executive director of basketball operations to know exactly what his roster will look like in four months, Ainge was fairly blunt when asked about his priorities this offseason.
“Well, we definitely need to improve our frontline,” he said.
Look for them to check out point guards and wing defenders, as well.
“There are a lot of things I’m going to explore this summer,” Ainge said. “But a lot of things are based on timing and who might be available at the right time.
“Right now we’re taking a big look at the draft to see what might be there for us. We’re checking to see if there are any players we might want to trade up for.”
“Overall we’ve just got to get better,” Ainge said. “We want to keep the nucleus together and see what we can do to improve our team.”
I am glad he sees what we see! We need big men and a big wing defender!
I am doubtful we can get something useful in the draft. But if we buy a first rounder there might be someone who could help us...
