It reads like last night or this morning Boston could have got Turner.
i hope nothing serve him right

Everyone wins but Boston. And frankly if Boston is smart and sends a 2nd to get a TPE, they probably win in the end too.

No. Charlotte doesn't win. Unless Hayward was really held back in Boston and explodes and stays healthy which is doubtful.

If Ainge did not want Turner and McDermott then that is his choice. Business sense and cap worries, it makes plenty of sense. Just seems strange on the about face of two or three weeks ago when Ainge announced he was not concerned with payroll.

No my guess is Ainge would have taken Turner/Doug but that Indy didn't want to meet Hayward's requirements.

What a mess.
