This doesn't worry me. That's the thing about having a culture like ours. We are a factory that takes broken players and makes them fit and primed.

2015-16: Luol Deng, Joe Johnson
2016-17: Dion Waiters, James Johnson, Willie Reed

Aside from that look what we've done with our undrafted players and 2nd rounders: Rodney McGruder, Tyler Johnson, Okaro White, Josh Richardson.

My choices if we lose Hayward and whiff on Waiters:

1. Thomas Robinson (PF)
2. Cole Aldrich (take that OKC pick Milwaukee is offering) (C to backup Whiteside)
3. Tyreke Evans (previously suggested here) even broken. We can put Humpty Dumpty together again.
4. Omri Casspi?

Then we watch the Summer League and G League games and just do it again.

We just have to make the playoffs to make me happy. As I've said before, we are not contending, not even with Hayward, I think.

Nice take Goemmels. But I think we compete with Cleveland if we add Hayward to our core.

Celtics fans talking smack, questioning why Hayward would even think about joining Miami.

Millsap to Nuggets. 3/90.

Atlanta should have cap space now: $37M plus. No caphold for Millsap anymore. He was UFA anyway, but I suspected Atlanta would make him some offer.

Regardless of what happens I just want to see him sign anywhere but there. I'm really in it for the Celtics meltdown. I feel like as a fanbase their a boxer who's been staggered, they just need one more blow to go to the land of shambles and dispair

I really want Hayward because he's a great player, but part of me also wants him to come here just to spite Celtic fans and see their reactions.

Read on Twitter

This is a golden opportunity.

Do it for Miami.

Do it for America.

Do it for our little "mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam."

What is Aldrich contract like? If it brings in a pick, I'd take it if it's not TOO bad. Let him backup Hassan, let Bam start at the 4 with JJ off the bench.
