Jeff Green, Jason Terry Could Keep Celtics in Contention for NBA TitleThe NBA offseason has hardly been a quiet one.

The Dwight Howard saga has continued to plague the league as the big man is still a member of the Orlando Magic, despite his consistent demands to be traded. Several big name free agents have signed with new teams, while others inked contracts to stay in the same uniform as last season.

A month ago, the direction of the Boston Celtics seemed a little uncertain. But the team has recently taken shape with some big free-agent signings, including Jeff Green, Brandon Bass and Jason Terry.

Fortunately, fans don't have to wait until the start of the 2012-13 NBA season to talk about the Celtics' offseason moves, and how the rest of the league is shaping up. NESN.com NBA insider Ben Watanabe answered questions in a Twitter chat on Tuesday, including who will be in the Celtics' starting lineup, how recent draft picks Jared Sullinger and Fab Melo will contribute in the upcoming season, and how the Celtics will matchup with the Miami Heat and the rest of the NBA.

Fans used the hashtag #NesnLive to join the chat. Check out the conversation below.
