Preseason coming up and Roster is still not yet finalized

[JBcat]

My guess is Ainge is waiting until the last moment to see if he can off load his unguaranteed contracts Bogans, Johnson, and Babb for possibly a less desirable contract and a pick.  The issue is most teams now have their books in good order with shorter guaranteed deals so he may not find that type of deal. He may just end up cutting Bogans, Babb, and Johnson with his final roster looking like this;

Rondo, Smart, Pressey
Bradley, Thornton, Young
Green, Turner, Wallace
Sully, Bass
KO, Zellar, Fav, Anthony

[DesertDweller]

For sure all the dead weight will be gone like Anthony, Babb, Bogens, Johnson and Thornton. that would leave 12 add turner maybe, but I'm still holding out for Danny to give us a fireworks display.
you hate to hope for anything on this board because everyone is so freakin' negative!!! you say one thing that might be a bright spot and five people attack you for being a dreamer and make up 10 reasons while you'll be living in Hell for the next decade.

When does training camp start?

[Tr1boy]

Pressey wont be cut. He just signed a deal in the summer

Celtics need to try to unload thornton, wallace, bass.

We really dont need to bring in ET imo. James young could use the min to develop instead

Pressey did not sign a new deal his salary just became guaranteed but its like 900k so he can still be cut.

Danny is cheap. Plus if your an owner would you be happy if your gm throws 900k down the toilet?

Better than millions if he has to cut some one else. Plus Danny has indeed cut players before that were guaranteed low contracts.

Fab Melo's waiting until the last moment to unveil his dramatic comeback.

I apologize in advance for what is gearing up to be a year of me referencing our last great center that wasn't.

  I think we're a little past "in advance".

Fair.

Looks like another 25 win season

Not a bad thing if C's win the lotto.

Can Turner play in Preseason if his contract isn't official?

No.  Pretty sure he can't do anything with the team.

Has anyone verified the pic with Turner in #11 Celtics jersey? If it's real then he has to be signed, right? You can't wear official things from Celtics before you sign, at least I don't think you can.
