#Celticstalk: #Celtics have 2 open roster spots. Ainge said the C's will use both "when all is said and done."

Maybe give Troy Murphy a 2nd chance to make a better impression?

Not much talented size (6-10 or bigger) available in the free agent market right now.

When all is said and done, that might mean taking a couple of flyers on some young D-Leaguers with upside as this year's version of Tony Gaffney and Oliver Lafayette.

Henry Sims seems like one of the more logical bigs for that purpose.

Sean Williams was here earlier in the season, right? Maybe he is worth another chance.

Sims sounds very interesting. I would be happy with Sims.

I think it's time to start looking toward the future. Sullinger's production isn't going to be able to be replaced by some D-league scrub. This isn't 4 years ago, it's right now.

I think sending KG to Oklahoma for the Martin/Lamb/1st rounder (currently 7th overall) is a very attractive deal if it can be done.

Ship Terry to San Antonio for their first rounder and filler. Check with the Spurs and see if they have interest in Pierce as well for a Jackson/Leonard combo. Their ship is about to sail, and should have some urgency to win now.

JaJuan Johnson?

Get up, go over to the nearest doorway, and pound your forehead against the doorjamb for that one.

Bang his head against a door? No no, that's Fab Melo's move.

Wasn't Williams a late last season addition and was gone when the season ended. Sure, he can warm a bench for us... 0.0

"when all is said and done" = not soon enough for Celtics fans.

I think Danny's talking about post-buyout shopping.

Kenyon Martin is still available? Good stop-gap for the season I think?

Between the Wilcox and Sullinger injuries, is it fair to say Darko is the biggest idiot of all time?
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

I think calling up Melo from the D-League is a no brainer right now...it allows us to give KG a few more minutes at PF, and between KG, Bass, Wilcox and Green we should be able to cover those minutes without a problem.
