Buyout Thread: If Celtics get a player in buyout market, who would be cut?

Go to the mat with the team that is, and see what happens. No castoffs needed or wanted.

Why?

Just being pessimistic. But, I don't see a true role for anyone. A big, in theory, but beyond that Brad goes with the guards/wings we already have anyways. And even a big, if Timelord comes back healthy, I'd rather give him the time.

That's not an overly exciting list. Vonleh, maybe?

I'd rather keep Poirier or Javonte Green. Evan Turner is probably the best of a bad lot. At least we'll get some one-liners.

I forgot about Kyle O'Quinn. Also several Hornets, former Kemba teammates are expiring like Biyombo, Marvin W and MKG.

I voted for none. But I'm disappointed with reading some of these trades we needed help and once again nothing. Center is a huge need especially since playing a small forward rookie before playing the the other 2 rookies. Thies is getting beat to hell and Kanter also can't stay healthy also time lord is a bust so far.
I'm assuming the playoff roster is as is. 7 rookies rookies. Come playoffs were going get beat badly.

Not playing this game anymore. We're not signing anybody, we're not cutting anybody.

It's a joke but apparently Ainge loves the bench and his picks even more.

Is this your opinion or what you’re hearing?

Ainge is not going to cut anyone to sign a player. Celtics will have no buyout player. What you see is what you get.

If Ainge wanted a buyout player he would have create a roster spot with a trade.

Guys get bought out for many reasons. And I guarantee none of which are they are so good they will help a team win a title. More often than not just not so good players that got paid too much money from not so good franchises.

Ainge said a few years ago that these buy out guys are typically overrated.

I'm with you. I think this is it.
Our team stays as is, for the remainder of the season.

"Stand Pat" Ainge, once again.

Ironically back up wing is our biggest need. Kanter and R Will as back up center, Smart and wanna maker as back up pf, but Javonte and Semi as backup wing sucks. Give me Turner.

It's been a mixed bag . . . . PJ Brown, Stephon Marbury, Sam Cassell, Carlos Arroyo, Sasha Pavlovic, Troy Murphy, Ryan Hollins, DJ White, Terrence Williams, Shavlik Randolph, etc. etc. Alright, it's been mostly bad . . .

EDIT: Add Michael Finley.

This team's biggest need is health, not new players.

Wasn’t Finely a buyout guy? So washed when we had him - loved that dude on Dallas.

Who would the Celtics cut to open a roster spot for a buyout signing?
