xp i really dont think they would, also cutting bait on jaylen seems wicked unwise

i don't think they would (or should) but if they feel they can't keep both turner and sabonis then they could make sabonis the starting 5, not pay bogdanovic who is older and replace him with brown, pay thad young for defense, and set up the team that way. it's a path that makes some sense but i think they will try to play sabonis and turner together until they realize it doesn't work.

yeah it solves positional issues for them and they get a really good young player

yeah something like brown for turner wld address this
boston has kemba fever
Hi everyone.I was walking in Boston Common today and ran into this 4 month old lab.His name is Kemba.You guessed it.He was named after Kemba Walker because his owners went to UConn.If this ain't a sign, I don't know what is.Please RT for good luck. pic.twitter.com/euyI8u5v8k— Only In Boston (@OnlyInBOS) June 27, 2019

aw hi kemba!
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 June 2019 16:41 (five years ago) link
Kemba feels kind of like an effort to recapture those feel-good Isaiah days, though with a presumably better and more durable player. Splitting the difference between Isaiah and Kyrie, kinda
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Thursday, 27 June 2019 16:56 (five years ago) link
yes this is why i support the move, maybe the celtics are better as a feisty second round team lol
― lag∞n, Thursday, 27 June 2019 16:58 (five years ago) link
tho they get a bunch of young guys who can play and who knows what develops
yep. Very intrigued by the Brown for Turner idea. Seems like Turner almost is what he is at this point, while Brown still growing into something, but what Turner is is pretty good and we need it. Just listened to Windy on Lowe's podcast yesterday though and both see Pacers as committed to making Sabonis/Turner work, for reasons unknown.

i think turner can get to another level if they let him hoist from 3
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 June 2019 17:10 (five years ago) link
hes a great defender who can knock down open 3s, past that if he just works on stuff like making plays out of the pnr getting his shot off a lil faster etc seems like he shd be real good for years

hard to come away from that article w/ any feeling beyond, damn danny ainge really screwed it up
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:55 (five years ago) link
if i'm assigning blame i feel that way more about stevens than ainge. i'm not really sure what ainge was supposed to do?
― call all destroyer, Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:05 (five years ago) link
i think stevens is doing the honorable thing by trying to absorb the blame but if a coach is publicly saying "the pieces didn't fit" that means to me it falls squarely on the GM
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:07 (five years ago) link
the one thing i will give both stevens & ainge a pass on is the gordon hayward stuff.... the players should've understood that minutes needed to be invested in hayward simply so that he could get used to playing in the NBA again and that this year in all likelihood was going to be a struggle for him
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:09 (five years ago) link
yeah to me the biggest controllable thing that just didn't work was the handling of hayward. i don't know who to blame for that tbh. if they did a consolidation trade to get guys more shots or whatever hayward would still have been there playing like shit.
they thought they had a switchable monster with 4 two-way wings and if everyone played reasonably well that would have been correct.

The Boston Celtics and French center Vincent Poirier have agreed to a two-year deal, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Poirier is a 6-foot-11 center who will provide additional front court depth in Boston.— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) July 2, 2019
