The Celtics entire roster now looks like this:
Starters: Kendrick Perkins, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo;
bench is Brian Scalabrine, Leon Powe, Brandon Wallace, Tony Allen and two second rounders, Gabe Pruitt and Glen Davis
If healthy, Tony Allen should be a good wing defender. Leon Powe has a small amount of promise as an undersized PF. The rest of the bench is raw at best, or simply worthless. They desperately need a PG to back up Rondo, and could use a C as well. The only player making much more the minimum is Brian Scalabrine; if I were Boston, I'd offer Brian Scalabrine and Glen Davis to the Hawks for Salim Stoudamire and one of either Lorenzen Wright or Anthony Johnson or Tyronn Lue- and if I were the Hawks, I'd take that deal. I think Davis will become a stud, but Boston needs rotation players NOW. And indications from Marc Stein are that the owner will only sign minimum salary players because of the salary cap. So, trading Scalabrine plus a prospect is the only way to address their needs.
