Nene would be a good Wilcox up grade. Might fit in good with ROndo.

The problem we have is both guys are paid a ton, we'd need to combine multiple large contracts just to get one guy, which would kill our depth, which is what killed us last year, which is what we raved about this offseason, and we wouldn't have anymore

I'm very interested in Nene as are many of you, but I think a lot of you are underestimating Okafor's impact on defense.  He is an excellent defender that paired with KG at PF would turn around this entire team's defense back to the level we were playing at with Perkins.  And if we start Lee or Bradley at SG, the celtics would be back in the top 3 defensive teams in the NBA easily.

Okafor would be good for us, but he has the contract that i wouldnt touch with a ten foot pole
C/PF-Horford, Baynes, Noel, Theis, Morris,
SF/SG- Tatum, Brown, Hayward, Smart, Semi, Clark
PG- Irving, Rozier, Larkin

his deal ends next year. lines up with current 'window'. length of deal is far more important than size.
