With a NBA roster limit being 15, it is rear to see a team with 4 centers and 4 point guards. Teams usually pile-up more guards and forwards and Celtics have been very cautious of those two positions to get 4 centers (Perkins, S. O'Neal, J. O'Neal, Erden) and 4 point guards (Rondo, Robinson, West, Bradley).
Looks like even that was not enough:
Out of 4 centers we have only one playing -Erden - a rookie with a bad shoulder.
Out of 4 point guards we now have only two - Nate and Avery, meanwhile first one is not a natural point guard, but rather an undersized shooting guard and the other one is a rookie.
How many more centers and point guards do we have to pile up next season to have insurance from injury? :)
The fact that loosing so many players on just those two positions has not stopped Celtics from winning is very impressive though.

Most of the injury are predictable if you have a bunch of old players like the Celtics.
It's not always, some young players gets hurt too like ODEN but count the odd to the old players.
