Danny has to make a move at this point, otherwise we won't make the playoffs.  Brandon Bass has regressed so much, that I'm wondering if he should even be in the rotation anymore (let alone being a starter).  As much as I love what Bradley brings defensively, he's very one-dimensional offensively.  If he's not cutting backdoor or spotting up for a corner three, he's pretty much non-existent offensively.  We really need a two-guard that can flat-out shoot it (Redick comes to mind), or create his own shot and get to the rim (think Tyreke Evans).

If Danny does nothing, then Doc should trot out the following starting lineup:

C - KG
PF - Sully
SF - Green
SG-  Pierce
PG - Rondo

Bench -

C - Wilcox
PF - Bass
SF - Lee
SG - Bradley
PG - Barbosa/Terry

I am with you here. We desperately need some scoring. Especially since Jason Terry is playing like somebodies drunk uncle. The guy is a joke. Unfortunately he is our overpaid joke.

I just read your other post in the Jason Terry Must Go thread and I couldn't agree more.  Terry has been a huge bust and I would deal him for anything at this point.  I think I would actually pay him to go away. :)

What you don't realize is that we have brought a decent offensive weapons over the past few seasons. It's such a mystery why they'll go on a slump once we brought them here.

In 2009, we have Marbury who was scorer back in the days and a three point specialist in Eddie House

In 2010, we have Rasheed Wallace and a spark plug on Nate Robinson and Michael Finley who used to be a sniper.

In 2011, we had a solid playmaker and shooter in Delonte West and the two O'neals, it's just the injuries plague them.

In 2012, we also have a decent three point shooter in Michael Pietrus.

What's the similarity, they all sucked playing here except for Shaq and Delonte.

Help in the form of our current players playing better.
I moved the cheese.

We need there to not be a giant hole in the middle of our offense.

The team is not going to become better offensively until they get somebody who can give them consistent, reliable inside scoring, or Pierce, Garnett, and Terry miraculously become 3-4 years younger and suddenly are elite 1 on 1 scorers again.
