Re: C's looking at Stoudamire:

If we got Stoudamire, and House was forced to play more 2, then that would make for a REALLY small 2nd unit backcourt. I don't think Tony Allen would be a good 3. 6'4 is a bit short for the 3.

Cassell would be a better choice, but ESPN just reported that the Celtics supposed interest in him is false. Anyways, if we were interested in him, I'd have some concerns. Though he can bring the ball up the court effectively, he is a shoot first point guard. And a lot of the shots he takes require him to put the ball on the floor a lot. For example, he'll dribble and get a feel for his defender and then shoot a midrange shot. His game would take away from Pierce, Garnett and Allen.

Both of them are bad defenders, but if I were to choose one, I'd choose Cassell. But as of now I'm not convinced we should get either.
