The Celtics best player is easily Paul Pierce, who is the leader of the Celtics both on and off of the floor. Pierce had probably his best season ever last year averaging 26.8 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game. Pierce can play anywhere on the floor because he’s a good shooter that has three point range and he’s a good passer for a small forward. For his career, Pierce has averaged 23.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.7 steals per game. Look for Pierce, who is the main option on the Celtics offense, to post numbers similar to what he had last season and maybe even better numbers.

Gerald Green will be Pierce’s back-up. Green won’t get that much playing time because Pierce rarely leaves the floor. Green averaged 5.2 points & 1.3 rebounds per game as a rookie last year.

Brian Scalabrine is a decent player that can also play power forward in a pinch. Scalabrine has averaged 3.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game over his career.
