Well I'm sad to see that those who voted on this pole would like to see the C's pick a center!? Perk is a perfectly good center. We have big men, we need to find a decent small foward/off guard to help spell Paul and Ray. I mean look at the minutes those two had to put up all season long!! Not just in the playoffs. Neither is getting any younger, and Tony Allen has been plagued with injuries for the better part of what 3 years?! I would like to see us re-sign Stephon, and go shopping for a decent back up PF/C in free agency, but draft a small forward type. Kinda like a Bill Walker but a little quicker maybe. Don't get me wrong I think Bill is going to turn in to a great second option behind Paul next season, but the C's need to start thinking about finding a quality guy that can play both the 2 and 3 to start molding in to postition to step up and take the torch one day. I think Bill and someone like Green from UNC could develope into a couple of stars that could take the torch in a few years from Ray and Paul when they finally decide to hang up the shoes. I'd like to think those guys could go on playing forever and we'd win 10 more championships once KG gets healthy but thats just not realistic. So to those of you who in my mind hated on Perk thinking we need a center, after he had the type of season that I think is deserving of Most Improved Player award consideration, second in the league only to Rondo's own improvement, I say poor use of a vote. Thanks and have a blessed day!

It's gotta be a center, we have decent forwards/guards to spell the big 3. Perk gets in foul trouble and we go to a small forward in Baby or power forward in Leon, heck shoot for O'neal he wants out and we might get to cap room too. Walker is going to be a player next year if he gets some time and we see that Moore has got to go as a center back up. I shouldnt even had put that in as its a no brainer. CENTER

Normalement celtics a besoin un autre center pour appuyer Perkins et un power forward en soutient. Donc cette annee il faut surtout jouer sur la hauteur de nos joueurs qui est tres important. Devant Orlando, c'est cette faiblesse qui nous permetrons sortir du final prematurement.
Posted by FONTUS Raude Bertin on June 22nd 2009, 6:41pm

that's all we need for the team by now so, if you find a man like Perkin we can win next year...

Power Forward position: Kevin Garnett has Leon Powe and Glen Davis to replace him off the bench Shooting Guard Position: Ray Allen has Eddy House off the bench Small Foward Position: Paul Pierce has no one that can come in and score some points. (no offense to Bill Walker but i don't like him) Center Position: Kendrick Perkins, needs a good replacement off the bench Point Guard Position: Rajon Rondo has Tony Allen off the bench that can score points...(no offense to Marbury but I don't like him) but we still need another strong point guard. Bottom line is we got find a good veteran Point Guard that can come off the bench and that can have the same impact as Rondo. (like a Iverson for example), a good Small Foward to replace the Truth (like a Tayshaun Prince for example) and a good Center (like a we had PJ Brown) So we got to be really careful picking someone...hope we make a good decision

Rajon rondo is the best point guard in the league but only aaron brooks is better then him
Posted by mike on June 23rd 2009, 3:23am

Once K.G. is back, which is this year, we will be the same team that won the championship two years ago... So get whoever you want but K.G. DOESN'T need replacing. He has another three year contract, but if we can, next year, we should try and draft Hasheem Thabeet! (I know, likely story,) but by the time K.G. goes, he'll be all trained and ready:) Good luck next year, Celtics! We love and support you:)
Posted by Carmen on June 23rd 2009, 4:54am

celtics need a power forward that can scores, slash and grab a rebound to be more competetive this coming season. our guards, centers, shooting guards are perfect. but PF slot is not. ok? so we should pick a power forward that can help KG in the shaded area. think about it man!
Posted by ton bartolome on June 23rd 2009, 6:14am

Go celtics. We really need someone to back up paul peirce
Posted by PJ on June 23rd 2009, 7:23am

I think what the Celtics need is a power forward who could play alongside Paul Pierce. The C's need someone wo can score big, with a lot of "heart" in wining games.....Also, a good point guard who can direct plays well....Stephon may be alright but I think he must be given more playing time to prove his worth in the team. A center" Well maybe, a center that might be a "force" to reckon with. I am a Celtic fan...and looking for banner 18 next year.
Posted by manny pancho on June 23rd 2009, 8:29am

I think a point guard to help Rajon is a good choice, otherwise he may get injured easily for playing too much. I'm from China, but I'm a Celtics fan.
Posted by John Zou on June 23rd 2009, 10:09am

boston needs a back-up small forward to replace paul pierce. Perkins is strong already there's no problem on him.
Posted by Tozkie on June 23rd 2009, 12:00pm

I'm from Barcelona(Catalonia) and i'm a Celtic fan, i think we need a big men becouse perk and KG usually can be injureds an leon or davis are smallers to play againts the big mans of other teams (sorry for my bad inglish!!) Visca els Celtics!!

Do not even think about trading rondo Ainge, just dont do it, or Allen, dont make the same mistake that we made with billups

go Celtics.. we need a good reliever for kedrick Perk. more hasn`t show what he is capable of doing like on his prime he should go.. we should get Darius miles on our roster he can come off the bench and help perks alot. stephon marbury should go...

Posted by Jan Michael G.Moro on June 23rd 2009, 2:34pm

well it really depends on what we do with Rondo. Since we keep looking to trade him. But if we keep him I think we need a SG or C because Ray isnt getting any younger and Mikki Moore didnt do as well as we probably hoped for. so either a Solid Center or someone to back Ray up. If we get rid of Rondo it will be a mistake, He will easily be in the top 5 Guards next year. But I'll always have confidence in my Celt's (: Lets go get 18 next year boys!
Posted by Blaze Van Natta on June 23rd 2009, 3:12pm

Harmony is so important on a team. Therefore I suggest they look for a point guard. I love what Rondo does on the floor, but he needs to grow up or change his ways in the club house.
Posted by Karen on June 23rd 2009, 3:36pm

Depuis Haiti, j'aime a la folie Boston, cette annee nous allons ecraser la NBA. Pour cela encore, nous avons besoins un center en soutient de Perk, et un Power Forward pouvant jouer le role aussi (small forward) en soutien du Big man KG.
Posted by Fontus Raude Bertin on June 23rd 2009, 3:44pm

rondo is too immature to run a team, and just makes bad mistakes. I think were fine at center, could use a another bruiser at forward. I just think we need a point guard that plays celtic basketball like the rest of the team. Rondo acts like an idiot on and off the court. He's not worth it, trade him while his value is at its peak.
Posted by Dan "cornbread" Maxwell on June 23rd 2009, 3:51pm

The needs are a scorer, both to shoot & challenge to basket, plus a defensive stopper in the line of Posey. Marbury, in top shape, can be the scorer. Minutes need to be spread & so the offense. Pierce had no ebergy most of the playoffs, but maybe that is attributable to KG's absence. Being used to championships, the goal is #18.

Ya i agree completely with derek white we need a small forward to come off the bench and take pierces spot when hes in need of a break or in foul trouble. Perk and Baby and Leon are perfectly good centers and kg could probably play the position if needed. We have ta, bill walker to play the small forward position but they're guards not small forward and we need a true small forward to fill pierce's shoes when he needs a break or is in foul trouble. Oh and John baby is a power forward not a small forward like u think

If Ainge trades Rondo im putting my fanhood up for sale on ebay.
Posted by Andrew O'Celtic on June 23rd 2009, 6:51pm

What the beep?!?!? A center? What is wrong with Perk???? What is wring with you people? WOuldn't a shooting guard be more important because we may be losing our shooter??? aka RAY ALLEN. I mean sure we could use a point guard but I don;t think they will trade Rondo this year atleast. I think all the votes are good except for the HUGE bar on the Center. Perk and Davis and Leon are doing fine. I think we are pretty good defnsively. Most of the team will be healed by the preseason and we will do FINE.
Posted by RoNdOlOvEr on June 24th 2009, 12:16am

Here is the deal we need a good backup for rondo. Personally i dont think we should of got marbury ( i think i spelled it wrong ) he doesnt really have the scoring we need off the bench or the assists we need from him. So ya i would say we need a good point.
Posted by Bman on June 24th 2009, 1:17am

Rondo is young,indespensable{9.7rebs. per} and will continue to mature.Some criticized Paul Pierce when he was the same age. Where would we be the last 11 yrs. without him? Celts need backup help at all positions. Green Since '56

please hire a good center and a goodshooter......... rest assure the Celtics could win another Title.......
Posted by Paolo on June 24th 2009, 9:17am

We dont need another center we need someone who can come off the bench. We already have our starters in place. That was our problem in the playoffs we didnt have shooters who could score alot of points in a little time.

Posted by word up on June 24th 2009, 4:18pm

come on people if it's one problem we have its the post. we have 7" footers and active guys like howard to worry about in there; and leaving perkins alone in there. dont get me wrong he's a good defender but where is his backup. if we were to make it to the finals can he actually guard gasol, odom and bynum. these guys are huge and dangerous players. we need a true center and not a pf/c to truely be a force. weve got scorers but if we had a true center with garnette in there it will surely free up allen pierce house and and give rondo a whole lot more allys. lol! kinda like the rockets in 95 "the twin towers".
Posted by andy on June 24th 2009, 6:27pm

go celtics!!! wat the effs wrong wid everybody... no trades!! should reflect on the past season and IMPROVE... not just individual skills but as a team... hope marbury gets back into shape, we all know he can score... so does the rest of the team... banner 18! sucks the fakers won... Ü

celtics dont need a guy for ray rember good eddie house we do need somebody for pierce get back james posey go get trevor ariza or odom if lakers dont resign them we might need to trade
Posted by ibraheem on June 24th 2009, 9:25pm

so we should own with ariza or odom
Posted by ibraheem on June 24th 2009, 9:27pm

i know we dont need a dumb center lets get somebody that we need for one of the starters if you arent a boston fan and gonna vote negative leave boston dont listen to these people just draft the people who you need to backup the starters and stuff look boston im like the only one whos telling you something right go boston celtics my favorite team of basketball so just forget the people who you know is saying something wrong reason why when i have teams they comment dont listen it might be bunch of laker fans trying to ruin our team danny ainge think whats right for your team we will be alright if some people are right listen and plus at 28th
Posted by ibraheem on June 24th 2009, 9:39pm

I think we need to shoot for a shooting guard. I love the big 3 but we need to face reality. Ray can be ice cold and not get it going for a whole game. In the playoffs when we need him most he is not there either. He showed up for what 4 out of 7 games against Chicago one amazing 50 point performance. Boston is flat out titletown this decade and we need someone that can handle the playoff pressure, and allen cannot. And for other positions we don't need anybody KG is here for a good 4-5 years and incase you haven't noticed still probably one of the most hungry players in the game. Pierce showed that he still has it, but it really looked like he was trying to do it all himself during the second half of the season and in the playoffs. Perkins played Dwight Howard better than anyone else in the playoffs limiting him big time, the only reason the stupid Lakers shut him down was because of height. Perkins matched him with strength. And for point guard Rondo is the catalyst, and quarterback of this team. Ainge says he needs to grow up and I agree if he cares more about himself, but find another point guard like him. OK he doesn't have the outside shot, but it came alive in the playoffs with a few threes, and name another point guard with his speed that can make the passes and amazing shots like he does. As for the bench we need to clear it out. Miki Moore needs to go, and so does Tony Allen. Mikki was no where to be found in the playoffs and Tony unfortunatley must have a curse on him because he is good, but he is also good at getting hurt. So theres minus a shooting guard right there. Also big baby will get a contract to go play somewhere else after his performance, and I don't blame him if he leaves and wants to start somewhere he got good learning from KG. We really should have kept James Posey, he was always a big help in our championship year, and besides KG, and as usual Allen missing in the playoffs, we were missing that spark off the bench. Yeah Eddie House got it going, but he can only do it from beyond the arc. Posey could drain them from out side get inside, and played good D on Kobe and Lebron when Pierce was actually out of the game. You need that type of player when our stars are on the bench. We need a shooting/small forward for this reason because we need the spark like a Posey or J.R. Smith or Birdman, or hey he's a free agent because you know they will sign Lamar Odom. A Young Small forward/ Shooting Guard Trevor Ariza! He showed what he could do in the playoffs. With Garnett back next year Perkins won't be in so much foul trouble and when he is you move Garnett to center and Powe to PF. So in the draft the Celtics i think should try and deal big baby, Tony Allen, and maybe Ray to try and move up to get a good player for the future, and start the bench from scratch. And even though I say trade Ray he is a big part of the Celtics, and maybe these messages can wake him up please for playoff time, because they will need him. HE just can't suddenly come alive only for the finals and game 7's we need him consistently. Also Stephon has to get alot better if he wants to stay here because he needs to shoot and get his confidence back with it and we can be deadly. Stephon, Walker, Powe, and who i believe should stay up J.R. Giddens on the bench, maybe sign a center in free agency and trade for a energizer and we will be back on top just like Garnett predicted us to go back to back for the next two years. The time is now Celtics Big Three you don't have much time, and I don't know any Celtic fan that doesn't want to smack Kobe in the face with another embarrassing spanking of them in the finals. With a healthy team consisting of these things Prince James, Superwoman, and big bad number 24 will not be able to stop us. And one last thing Clevland get whoever you want cause Lebron is leaving for New York, and Knicks you still won't be good. Oh and how could i forget Scalabrine. LMAO. Lets get em C's ANY THINGS POSSSSSSSSSIBLE
Posted by Jeff on June 25th 2009, 3:41am

OK. WHAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT IS NOT NECISARILLY THE POSITIONS BUT SIZE LOOK AT A TEAM LIKE THE LAKERS. THEY HAVE 3 7 FOOTERS ON THE TEAM( GASOL, BYNUM AND MBENGA) WE NEED A 7 FOOTER THE ONLY PERSON WE HAVE WITH GOOD HEIGHT THAT CAN PLAY IS GARNET. POWE BIG BABY PUT IN WORK BUT R WAY TOO SHORT WHEN PLAYIN TEAMS LIKE LAKERS, ORLANDO OR CLEVELAND. MIKKI MORRE IS NOT WORKIN OUT.....N TO THE PPL SAYIN THAT WE SHOULD TRADE RANDO....LOL...THAT WOULD B A BIG MISTAKE, LET ME REMIND U, NOT TO TAKE ANYTHING FROM PIERCE OR RAY BUT RONDO CARRIED THE TEAM THROUGH THE WHOLE POST SEASON N WAS AVERAGING A TRIPLE DOULDE OR CLOSE TO A TRIPLE DOUBLE IN THE FIRST 2 SERIES.

NEWAY WE WE GOOD ON SG: RAY & EDDIE IS ENOUGH I MEAN EVEN STAN VAN SAID THE CUDNT CONTAIN RAY & EDDIE RUNNIN ALL OVER THE PLACE N DOC STILL AINT GIVE HIM ENOGH TIME IN THE NEXT GAME N GAME SEVEN, I GUESS HE WANTED TO GO WITH EXPERIENCE IN PEIRCE. I TINK PEIRCE GETIN A LIL SLOW. WE NEED A FORWARD THAT CAN SHOOT THE BALL LIKE PAUL BUT THAT CAN DUNK TOO. WE NEED A BIG FORWARD LIKE 6 '10 THAT CAN PLAY DEFENDS. WELL BAYBE THAT SOUND LIKE POSEY U RIGHT DUDE MAYBE WE SHUD HAVE KEPT HIM. I LIKE SCALABRINE BUT SOMETIMES HE JUS AINT DOIN IT. HE LET ROSE BLOCK THAT SHOT, I STILL CANT BELIEVE SCALA U NEED ALOT MORE AGGRESSION. "KG" WE MISS U MAN...MAKE SURE U BUT IN THAT WORK OVA THE BREAK ON THE BEACH LIKE U DO IN THE OFF THE SEASON CUZ U NEED TO B FIT AGAIN....WE CAN DO IT AGAIN. N BABY HOW U ALLOW RONDO TO TAKE MORE REBOUND THAT U MAN. COME ON BABY LAZY WHEN IT COMES TO REBOUNDIN...HE JUS WANNA SHOUT LIKE HE PEIRCE OR KG....EVEN THOU IM GLAD FOR THE BIG SHOUT IN ORLAND BIG SHOUT BABY LOL BUT FAREAL U NEED TO WORK ON REBOUND. POWE WAS A REBOUND KING TIL HE GOT INJURED. RONDO WORK HIS ASS OFF. MARBURRY..I TINK WE CAN STILL TRY WITH HIM BAKIN UP RONDO. BYTHEWAY...RONDO IS 1 OF THE BEST PG IN THE LEAGUE JUS LACKIN A JUMP SHOT BUT HES THE FASTEST ASK BOLT....SOME1 SAY WE SHUD GET IVERSON...HE A GREAT PLAYER BUT HES A BALL HOG, UNLIKE RANDO WHO DISHES TO RAY OR PEIRCE. PERKINS IS NOT THE TALLEST CENTER BUT HE DOES HIS JOB EVEN ON DWIGHT. U GARRANTY ALEASE 10 REBOUND A GOOD D FROM PERK. I LIKE TONY ALLEN CUZ HE ALWAYS GO TO THE BASKET BUT HE SHORT N CAN EASILY GET BLOCK OUT BY BIG GUYS. WE GOOD A SG, PG, WE EITHER NEED A CENTER TO BACK UP PERK, OF 2 FORWARD THAT CAN HELP PEIRCE THAT CAN FINISH AT THE BASKET....WITH KG A AINT GOTTA SAY NUTTIN HE GOOD.

I LOVE HOW THE CELTICS PLAY IM A HUGE FAN,I JUMPED OF MY SEAT WHEN I FOUND OUT KG AND RAY RAY ARE GOING TO CELTS.SORRY TO SAY BUT MANY PLAYERS IN THEIR ROSTER ARENT PLAYING WELL OR GETTING OLD. ON THE AGE MATTER ITS RAY RAY BUT CAN STILL PRODUCE POINTS, STEPHON IS AGING TOO. MOORE AINT PLAYING AS GOOD AS EXPECTED. I RESPECT THEIR DECISIONS FOR TRADES BUT DONT TRADE RONDO. SURE HE MAKES MAJOR MISTAKES BUT ARE COUNTABLE, SURE HE NEEDS TO IMPROVE HIS JUMP SHOT BUT HE HAS VETERAN TEAMMATES THAT CAN HELP HIM IMPROVE. IF U ASK ME HE WAS THE BEST CELTIC IN THE BULLS AND MAGIC SERIES. ALL THE CELTICS NEED ARE BETTER BENCH PLAYERS. THEY NEED PLAYERS TO BACK UP THEIR STARTERS,LEON AND DAVIS ARE GREAT BUT SHORT, MOORE IS NOT PLAYING WELL.THE BIG 3 IS AGING BUT ARE STILL GREAT PLAYERS ALLEN IS STILL MAKING HIS SHOTS,PIERCE IS STILL CUTTING THROUGH LIKE WHAT 1-3 PLAYERS AND CAN STILL MATCH WITH LEBRON,WADE OR KOBE,KG SUFFERED AN INJURY SURE BUT IS STILL A MONSTER RACKING UP DUNKS,REBOUNDS,BLOCKS ASSISTS U NAME THEM. HE IS THEIR LEADER THAT EVERYONE IS WAITING FOR TO RETURN. HE IS THE ONE WHO WILL LEAD THEM TO CHAMPIONSHIPS. GOOD LUCK TO THE CELTICS I KNOW YOU WILL BE CHAMPIONS THIS YEAR.
Posted by Meelerz on June 25th 2009, 1:22pm

I realize what Rondo has done and he was amazing. Triple Doubles that many times are hard to do, but do we really need our PG avg. 12 ribbies a game? No. We need size, and i love rondo he makes unbelievable plays with his wing span and speed, but his attitude it sounds like needs to change. He is our future. He reminds me of a young Paul Pierce. I say we do give him more time. However if Ainge doesn't think he will change and Rondos agent keeps making it sound like hes a bad guy I would try and trade rondo before he kills the locker room (MANNY) and get someone just as good because Ainge and Theo Epstien are good at this (JASON BAY). Celtics- Rondo Scal and Big Baby (BB was a big help in playoffs but he is a free agent and he can leave and we could get nothing for him!) and with the Grizzlies we get Rudy Gay (young can shoot and can get to the hoop) and the 2nd round pick where we draft Rubio. Has anyone watched this kid? This would be a great pick up and then all we need to do is work on our bench like i said before we need a spark like KG but a bench one. Also maybe a center to help out Perk. then wwe would have C- Perk/Powe PF- KG/ POWE SF- Pierce/...(i dont like Bill Walker or Tony Allen and i think we should maybe trade them to Walker isn't what we thought he would be and how many times are we going to give TA the benefit of the doubt with how much he gets hurt we need help for Pierce trade those two to New Orleans get Posey back or try for J.R. Smith or hello Lakers either sign Lamar Odom or Trevor Ariza, and they are leaning towards Odom so how about a nice 29 year old coming off the bench (who has A RING) for him or if the trade gets through RUDY GAY) then SG- Ray Allen/ Eddie but we need more help there because Ray's knees and he can be cold and Eddie can only shoot how about more people going to the basket maybe Ariza or Gay plays there or we go after someone else. Finally PG- Rondo (or if they trade him Rubio)/ Stephon (i think we give him another year he hadn't played in a year and a half. Dont give me the BS he said he was in shape. You could see he wasn't and because he didn't prepare he had no trust in his shot this year it will go right from Camp and he will be a big impact.) Lets go C's. Because this would sound like a championship team and i said it on a previous post i'll say it again I wanna humiliate Kobe in the finals because that was no challenge. Also Shaq and Lebron won't be hard to beat. What about when both are on the bench? They have noone. Then the Magic Turkoglu is opting out he will go somewhere else. Then name a team to be afraid of. The spurs maybe with Parker Duncan Ginobli and now Richard Jefferson. There are no other teams i'm not even scared if the hawks get Jamal Crawford. We will be superior with this team for at least a good 4-5 years so lets bring home number 18 and 19 and 20. And do it for Red because Phil Jackson was a disgrace with that ten hat about passing Red. It took him an EXTRA 20 YEARS TO PASS RED. and Phil had MR. AIR JORDAN AND SUPPOSEDLY THE SECOND BEST KOBE. Phil is 63 with 10 championships. Red retired at 48 with 9 championships.

We reallyyyyy need another scorer just like Paul :/ Someone to come in and score behind Paul......

they really need a point guard because paul pierce just does not always get the job done the way it is supose to be done.they need someone like stephen curry thats someone to get thejob done im not saying that paul pierce is bad but he just needs to try to hustle a little better.
Posted by nozzy on June 25th 2009, 8:39pm

THEY NEED A POINT GUARD. HMMMMM LETS SEE MAYBE STEPHEN CURRY.
Posted by nozzy on June 25th 2009, 8:43pm

Those who think that we need a scorer don't know what they're talking about. Have you ever heard of the big three? We've got all the scoring we need with them, because at least one of them is always on the floor. And for a Point? Rondo is doing a stellar job, and we have a great backup in Eddie House. We don't need a PF.. have we forgotten about Leon Powe? He's an excellent backup and we really missed him in the 09 playoffs, but nobody recognized it. We need a big man. Despite Glen Davis' showing in the playoffs last year, He's not ready to back up Perk, and It's easy to say that Perk is definitely the starter on the team who needs a good backup.. He's our weakest link. And for a SG, Ray Allen needs a better backup than Tony Allen, he's extremely injury prone and isn't the Celts answer.. So at this point i'd be happy to get either a SG or a C. Lets go get #18 baby.
Posted by C-Payne on June 26th 2009, 1:52am

Tell me what you think about that^
Posted by C-Payne on June 26th 2009, 1:54am

what we need is to get rid of moore and walker and get a backup center like gortat from the magic. big baby is good but to short to be a true center. also get another decent scoring backup who can play both 2 and 3 to help out allen and pierce when they are tired. when kg and powe come back we will be unstoppable!
