We need an upgrade over either House or Cassell. Yes, we won a championship with them, but we could use more at that back-up spot to help get another title.
Pruitt might be the answer, though I'm open to a better solution. I'm thinking Pruitt will give us better defense than either House or Cassell, a better handle than House, some penetration, and a decent outside shot. I'd be happy to settle for that much. The other thing is, if they give Riddens a major shot at backup 2 guard, then hopefully Pruitt can slide over and fill in for him when Riddens is having a poor night.
I'd rather we bring in another big guy, which Ainge says we won't do (at least not until the latter part of the season), then another guard.
