How about bringing Avery Bradley back if the price is right? He's an unrestricted FA and his stock took a hit since he left the Celtics.
Always loved AB. 3&D specialist off the bench would be really fun. Also think he’d appreciate truly contending.

Hard to see him staying in LA

Bring Avery Back with the MLE could be a nice move if Smart leaves. However this would hurt the teams chances of retaining Baynes.

When JJ Reddick praised the C's a week ago in some podcast and said TD Garden was like the loudest playoff arena he'd ever played in, I dreamed of the possibility of signing him as a ring chaser. I doubt it happens this year as he'll get paid somewhere, but maybe a few years down the line it can happen  8)

I've wanted Reddick for years.  Imagine the looks he'd get in Stevens' system.

He would be like a more efficient Korver for us. Great sharpshooter off the bench.  ;D

I'd like the same guy I wanted at last year's trade deadline:  Tyreke.  He can play 1 through 3, and he'd a prototypical scoring 6th man.

We'd probably be playing in the Finals right now if we had gotten Tyreke at the trade deadline for a future 1st.

Still can't believe that Ainge didn't sign him during the offseason.

In all honesty, and this is if the Celtics wind up getting rid of Rozier or Smart, I like Devin Harris as an option.

Very smart player who has been playing under Rick Carlisle for the past 3.5 years. He'd be a great fit.

I guess my phrasing may have not been clear. I'm not saying Harris is a better option than Rozier or Smart. I'm saying that as far veterans minimum options go, he's a good one to go to, particularly in the case if we possibly lose Rozier or Smart. The guy averages around 8 points, 2 assists, and shoots around 35% from three. Not bad for a 35-year-old.

But please tell me how he's a bad option. I'd love to hear you out.
