Remember back in the 2008 championship season and playoffs when the Celtics would put Eddie House at the point guard position, James Posey at the 4 and slide KG to the center spot? It was considered a gimmicky line-up by Doc at the time, but now if you're not plying line-ups similar you are in the NBA lottery. Centers like Kendrick Perkins are dinosaurs. Point guards like Rajon Rondo are as well. Trying to play a traditional pass first point guard and a traditional back to the basket center will only lead to losses.
Every year (actually every day) I hear fans complaining that the Celtics need a real center.
