Re: Official Boston Celtics Draft Thread
We just drafted 2 wings. What does this mean for Posey, House, and Allen?

Tony Allen is beyond ****ed, but as long as Posey and House want to return for cheap, I can't see them being pushed out the door. I think next year the roster will shake out something like this:
C- Perkins/Baby
PF- KG/Powe
SF- Pierce/Posey/Walker
SG- Allen/Giddens
PG- Rondo/House/Pruitt
Scalabrine in street clothes making too much money. If for some reason we decide to bring Erdin over, he'd be there with Scalabrine. Also, I think we're committed to Pollard, right?

House wants a multi-year deal, so he's gone. Giddens takes over Tony's role as the emergency guard next season. Billy Walker is probably headed straight to Boston's medical staff for consultation. He'll spend next year rehabbing the knee and when he's ready go to the D League to work on his game. Thanks to Giddens TA can now be the salary ballast needed to allow Boston to poach a big man off the open market, like Diop or (*gulp*) Moby Swift (you just know that Danny hasn't given up on the Great white Fail). Now with Tony to make up the salary difference they can offer an above-MLE deal to someone as part of a sign & trade.

No summer league. The Cs will instead hold a minicamp in Waltham for undrafted players and assorted other mid- to lower-level free agents.

Re: Official Boston Celtics Draft Thread
Tom Toner with the official draft wrap-up. His analysis of Semih Erden is particularly interesting.

Re: Official Boston Celtics Draft Thread
They really gave Erden a number? I read something from Ainge that made it sound like he wasn't expecting him until next season. This is unexpected.

Re: Official Boston Celtics Draft Thread
I take it Erden is possibly our answer to Pollard as the emergency big?

We gave another rookie guard #4, too. Some guy named Chauncey. He turned out all right, just not for us.
