What the Boston Celtics could look like after the off-season...



2012 NBA Draft:
Dream situation for the Boston Celtics would be to use both of their draft picks this year, and getting Royce White and Jared Sullinger. White, Small Forward from Iowa State, would be a solid replacement for Paul Pierce once he departs. He is a Top-10 talent, and a future superstar if he can control his odd anxiety problems. Sullinger, Power Forward out of Ohio State, looks to be one of the best forwards in the whole draft, but has had his stock fall due to back problems. If healthy, Sullinger is a first year starter and Royce as well if the Celtics were to lose Pierce.



Clean House! The Celtics should rebuild around Avery Bradley and Rajon Rondo. That means only six players on the current roster. Here is a list of targets for the Celtics in no order:

-Leandro Barbosa, SG
-Chauncey Billups, PG
-Juwan Howard, PF
-Spencer Hawes, C
-Michael Redd, SG
-Jonny Flynn, PG
-Josh Howard, SF



Projected Roster 2012-2013:

C-
Spencer Hawes
PF- Jared Sullinger
SF- Paul Pierce
SG- Avery Bradley
PG- Rajon Rondo
- Royce White, SF
- Jujuan Johnson, PF
- E'Twaun Moore, SG
- Sean Williams, PF-C
- Jonny Flynn, PG
- Leandro Barbosa, SG
- Juwaun Howard, PF
