| Imagine needing 2 to tie 3 to win final seconds with Allen, Sheed, Lofton, and Pierce in the game. How do you not score? | |

| Celtics really need some bench help, Lofton has at least a decent shot at making the roster.
And don't forget about Eddie House, he can drain 3s with the best of them. | |

Rondo
Allen
Pierce
Garnett
Perkins

We're talking about last seconds of a game, and if you have the ball down 2, you'd definitely have Sheed out there.

He is not an NBA player | Lofton will probably not contribute much to an NBA team, but he will make an NBA roster before it's all said and done. It doesn't take much to fill out an NBA roster. It wouldn't surprise me to see the C's keep Lofton and release JR Giddens.
