CELTICS 2010

reading some local boston sports posts and a surprising number of people are psyched for a core of tatum/brown/smart/hayward, which just tells me that none of these people watched the nba playoffs

Tacko to Boston

Steven Adams is on Boston’s “radar”, per @NBCSCeltics.

Called it

ugh hate it

Question whomst do u prefer at C

i don't really care. whoever they can get for a few million bucks. the idea that adams or vooch is a good use of resources is hard for me to understand.

adams in particular is not only wildly overpaid but fits best with the type of ball-dominant pick and roll guard that is unlikely to be on the team next year

Vooch I agree is not worthy of the big bucks

is there a comprehensive free agent list somewhere

adams' reputation took a hit this year, but the guy can seriously rebound, defends well, and was in the 91st percentile for post-up PPP just a season ago -- plus he's still only turning 26 this summer.

i'd rather the celtics play it slow this year than pick a good-not-great player up on a big contract if thats all that's available to them

xp that's great. he's going to make $53 million for two seasons.

Is Kyrie talking about this?

what a dodo

if the C's spend the bulk of their space on Adams I just don't see who facilitates that offense next year. I know they did well in the playoffs two years ago without Kyrie but I feel like Al was probably their best passer then and now he's going to be gone too.

yeah they need playmaking bad

hayward can do some of that but they need more

they need a point guard, and a center

seems like it'd be time for guys like jaylen and tatum to make "the leap"

i think itll happen but still neither of them are gonna be big distributors

maybe down the road with time to hone their games theyll be solid contributors in that phase but its not a talent that really leaps out w either of them

they shd somehow get jrue and adams imho

have a nice maxed out 2nd round playoff team lol

Carsen Edwards on Grant Williams: “He’s a good dude, man. Yesterday we were talking on FaceTime and I had just gotten into Boston. He was like, ‘Do you want to play games?’ And I’m like, ‘Dude, I just got here.’ He’s like, ‘I play board games too.’"

lmao every person on the celtics rather not make the playoffs than deal w kyrie

Ainge: "I think it just makes life more enjoyable when everybody is humble, hard-working, and will play any role they have to to help the team succeed. You do have to have a certain amount of talent to win, as we all know, but good people makes coming to work more fun."

its sad kyrie has a bad personality when he is such a cool player!

celtics will make the playoffs

depending on who they pickup yeah doesnt seem like too much of a stretch

how good wld the celtics be if they got kemba & adams (assume trading hayward) prob the 3rd best team in the east

wait how on earth are you going to trade gordo?

w a pick i guess

Question
Who the fuck is trading for Gordon rn

hornets

lol just one pick???

two more seasons 67 million

celtics have a good pick, hornets want to get something back for kemba, its not actually that hard for teams to convince themselves hell be good this year cause he might actually be, hornets are dumb

itd be sad to break up the butler boys

it was a nice idea but the celtics just need a lil reset a lil live laugh love u know

gordon is low key also a bummer sorry

i don’t think they’re talking anyone into taking gordon, unfortunately.

maybe next season when hes an expiring but no one is taking that contract on with what he's shown cmon goon.

man u guys teams do all sorts of more dumb reckless shit constantly

also this is a extremely prime asset:
2020 first round draft pick from Memphis
Memphis' 1st round pick to Boston protected for selections 1-6 in 2020 and unprotected in 2021 [Boston-Memphis-New Orleans, 1/12/2015]

sort of feel like I'd ather wait to see what gordo has rather than ship him and that pick out now. they can always do it at the deadline or a year from now

well theyd need to do it now to get kemba

and from a hornets pov of tanking taking on hayward is nbd because he becomes tradable for more assets in a year really regardless if he regains form or not, and if he does play well then it becomes really worthwhile for them

also just that pick is very very good, i mean im not sure id want the celtics to do it but its a plan

kemba is a free agent

s&t baby
