In a little more than twenty-four hours from now the Boston Celtics roster will be the roster it marches into the playoffs with in April, barring any unforeseen free agent signings. According to sources, Nate Robinson will be a Celtic, though it is still unclear who won't be. For a pint-sized professional basketball player with that many warts, let's hope the price didn't include Tony Allen or a first round pick. Keeping Eddie House would be nice, too. Yet playing those two together or even finding time to play them separately would be tough.
Twenty-four hours also represents the chunk of time between now and when the Celtics will begin final preparations for the rematch with the Lakers. What Celtics team will show up? Better yet, what Celtics team will show up down the stretch? Will KG show any signs of a return to dominance? Will the Celtics? Should be an interesting 24 hours.
Oh, BTW, I say Danny does one more deal not involving the name Nate Robinson.
What say you?
Do these numbers shout "first round pick" to you?

Defense comes down to effort, heart, and athletic ability.
Nate has athletic ability, and he puts forth effort with heart on offense.
Can Nate pick it up and apply himself on D?
Nate trade not "official" but done - and @WojYahooNBA says may not finalize until tomorrow - but sounds like it is House/2nd Rnd pick.

2nd rounder sounds more like it
as this team is build, if he defend he'll play, else...
