The act of guessing who the Celtics will sign this offseason is virtually pointless this early in the game. First of all the playoffs aren't even done yet. Secondly, we haven't even had the draft yet (so team needs haven't really been solidified). Finally, and most importantly, we don't know what the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) will look like so we have no clue what we can afford.
With that as the backdrop, all I can do is take a look down the free agent list and have some fun with it.
Familiar Faces: Hey, I know that guy!
- Brian Scalabrine - I actually do want to see him signed, ...as an assistant coach.
- Leon Powe - looked good against us that one game
- Marquis Daniels - not sure what his status is health-wise
- Shelden Williams - no
- Tony Battie & Marcus Banks - wait, they are still in the league?
- Sebastian Telfair & Theo Ratliff - thanks for helping us get KG!
- Yi Jianlian - never a Celtic (thankfully), but Danny always liked him (for some reason)
Old And Busted: If Danny wants to roll the dice on old and injured players again, he'll have plenty of big name choices! I'd actually take a flyer on any one of these guys at the right price and on a non-guaranteed deal. We just can't fill up the roster with them (see Shaq).
