Yeah am very optimistic on DSJ. If he can get his conditioning and shooting percentages up he can be KD’s new Westbrook without the craziness and stat padding.

I can’t find the video but what I like about DSJ is that when he was asked who he thought was the best PG between Curry and Russ, he insisted on saying that it was Chris Paul.

There really is a desire for DSJ in becoming a true floor general rather than simply being a scoring PG that some would make him out to be.

Yep I remember that vid too. You can tell he wants to be a true floor general by his play also. Remember how many times he could've had 10+ assist games this season and it didn't happen cause of the bums we had missing open shots? :lol:


There was a suggestion in the Celtics board to do a sign-and-trade for Kyrie to get DSJ from us.

It will be very depressing to see both DSJ and Tatum on the Celtics while we get stuck paying top dollar for Kyrie.

Lol we’re called delusional for wanting DSJ over Kyrie tho. At least we ain’t alone :lol:

Ima cry if they get DSJ and Tatum tho :cry:

DSJ reaching nowhere near Kyrie’s level. I promise you.

There’s nothing wrong with that btw, Kyrie is just really skilled.

Do they really prefer him over Kyrie or are they just preferring him over Rozier knowing Kyrie is leaving and they did give up assets for him (Crowder and the Brooklyn pick) and there really isn't a realistic way for them to upgrade their PG position?


Sounds like they just want something in return to feel compensated with

Yea it’s probably that also. That would be a good compensation for them if they are losing Kyrie. I would be mad to see DSJ in Boston tho. Those mfers already got Tatum :evil:

They essentially gave up Sexton for Kyrie. I know you like both but who you like more DSJ or Sexton?

DSJ cause he is a point guard and Sexton is more like a undersized shooting guard. Sexton looks like he’s gonna be a damn good scorer though. Cleveland got a good one

I think for Boston a guy like DSJ might make more sense but Sexton kinda reminds me of Eric Bledsoe and I could see him being a good fit on a team that would need their PG to be more of a scorer. For example Philly, they kinda need a guy like Sexton more than a guy like Ben Simmons and to a lesser extent a guy like DSJ.

DSJ is someone that Brad can mold and I believe could be to them what Rozier was during their great playoff run last year.

The warning from Celtics guys is that Kyrie will end up poisoning our young guys like Mitch and Knox and we are better off getting Kemba to pair with KD instead.

Going back to the draft have we decided who is going to make the draft lottery thread?

Is it the person who is the most lucky in Tankathon or are we trying the opposite this time?

Poisoning? :lol:

Yeah they are bitter. Wasn't DSJ supposed to poison our team according to Mavs fans? But they ended up with KP and all his drama :lol:

celtics fans who think they were a stacked team would obviously blame kyrie for their young players regressing. because its kyrie who told tatum to take kobe jumpers while playing no defense and jaylen brown to **** around in the offseason and not develop.

We should try the opposite. I was extremely lucky on tankathon 2 years ago so I was allowed to make the lottery thread and I ended up getting us Frank :oops:

What time is this thing on Tuesday - 830 right? Is the ping pong ball nonsense done by 9? I want to know how long I have to ignore the Net, TV, everything, before I find out the disappointing result.

If Pheonix gets the number one overall, and they take Zion, but they really want Ja, and we get Ja at 2....

Would you trade Ja + future first(s) for Zion? I'd do it in a heartbeat
