less is more

I've seen a lot of people's ideas for the ideal offseason for the celtics, and I don't know what's going on in half of your heads. The Celtics don't need any major changes by any means. If it weren't for KG's injury, I think they would have won another title. However, we do have a few gaps to fill, and with a lot of teams in the east already improving their rosters, the Cs can't get too far behind.

 

Here is what I think the Celtics should do:

-Give the full MLE to Sheed: We desparately need a post who can actually play center, as this past playoffs has showed us. Sheed will be more than a decent fill-in player. A rotation with Sheed, perkins, and Garnett is good both offensively and defensively. If this doesn't work out, I think our second best option would be McDyess, who would play for less of the MLE anyways.

-Back-up wing: I have heard that Milwaukee might buy out Bowen's contract. If they, the Cs should jump all over him. He's got a winning background and he's a determined defender. If not, I like Anthony Parker (depending on sheed, we may not have enough to sign him), Desmond Mason (what is he asking for?), and Pops Mensah-Bonsu (athletic defender for cheap).

-Re-sign Big Baby: He was an important piece to our playoff run last year, and he's only improving. We should also be looking down the road, past the big 3, and I think Davis could be an important part of our future.

-Back-up Point: I would like to re-sign house as well, but let's face it, the guy is NOT a point guard. we need a player that can handle the ball under pressure and keep his man in front of him. I think a few of our best options are Bobby Jackson (only his defense worries me),  and Will Bynum (he may want more than we have to offer).

Be respectful and keep it clean. Thanks.
