They just signed Kevin Pittnoggle to a 2 year deal. They're so young, its absurd. Will they cut Brian Grant? Probably, that leaves them a 16 for roster spots. I suppose they could cut Allen Ray to bring them down to 15, but w/ Delonte West, Rajon Rando, Sebastian Telfair all logjamming the point & many other youth filled logjams, I am perplexed at what Ainge is trying to accomplish (unless the Big East allows the Celts in).

Trading for Telfair made absolutely no sense. I thought West played well for them. Not a pure Pg but he does a little bit of everything. Can defend, can block a shot or two from the perimeter, rebounds well for a guard, can stick the open jumper, and seems to really understand how to play the game.

On top of that, Ainge drafts Rondo. I assume he was trying to load up for a potential Iverson deal but now that seems to be off the table.

Ainge has alot of nice young pieces to build upon. If I were him, I'd look to move Pierce, to round out the roster and build with the youth.

Ainge has no bad press written about him. Its a damn shame. Why did he trade for wally? Why is he holding on to pierce? Why the hell did he sign scalabrine?

They do have a nice group of young guys but don't anyone think for a second that Danny knows what he is doing.

After saying that, guys like ainge out of nowhere make the playoffs and become contenders all of a sudden, just like another idiot, John paxson!

I actually think the Celtic's are good at the I,2, and 3 spots. You can't go wrong with Pierce. And Wally is one of the few players in the league that is not a center that shoots about 50% outside of Wade.

Telifar might have a solid year because he does not have to score all he has to do is drive.
