The big picture

["Enrile, Roy" <renrile@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

After Ainge's personel changes, can the C's run with Jersey in the
playoffs?
Have we improved on "scoring, knowledgeable players, athleticism"?  In
an insider article Ainge/Obie agreed that the point of the trades were
to improve those three areas.

Big minute players:
Antoine -> Vin (Raef injured)
Delk ->    RDavis
EW ->      Welsh
Battie ->  Mihm
Bremer ->  James

Others:
Coles ->   Banks
Kedrick -> Jumaine
Long ->    Hunter
MBryant -> Perkins
Sundov ->  Stewart

Of the Big Minute players, I'd say scoring and game knowledge is
improved but athleticism is a wash.  Last years 5 players were gritty
and mentally tough on D.  Of the 5 main new players, I'm only impressed
by Jiri's toughness.
