I'm with you here on this general need. Is Paul Millsap a guy we want to consider? Or can we get another wing and move Crowder there?
I don't love Melo's style of play, but I think his ability to defend today's "PF" position, rebound, stretch the floor, and score the ball makes him a really good fit here on paper. If the Celtics management thinks he can play a high level of defense when it matters in the playoffs, then I'm very on board even if he slacks during the reg season.
