This can probably be filed under “no sh*t, captain obvious” but I heard from a friend in the know that Rozier moved most of his stuff out of Boston in the last week.

Like come on can we think before we say and do things. Shakcelts and Truth18 are the only posters that i don't have a problem with.


What happened to Truth18?

How come you and him can't both talk at the same time?


Lol. Truth bounces after a poster made some questionable comments. Sucks. Glad we got Cap back.


Outta character for him I guess?

Always liked him but was puzzled a bit when he tried to intimidate me...didn't see that coming from him...

Still on average, I'd be happy if he too would return...

Feel much the same way about Afam... people have melt downs from time to time... it's human...

if we go under the cap to sign a free agent, I think we are locked into the room exception until a year from now. We have given up our right to the MLE.

Damn, just when you think you have an elementary understanding of the cap currently, there is another wrinkle. How do they come up with this stuff? Or why for that matter?

And there are a slew of serviceable, primarily D-oriented centers out there, so one of them, at least, will be available cheap within a couple of weeks. And, having someone like that will be the best thing for TimeLord too.

All is good.


While a rim protector is our primary goal for a center, it wouldn’t hurt to have a post up presence in our team as well. It will give us different options on offense, and open up things for kemba and the rest.

Wouldn't that set Free Agency on it's ear?

That's the kind of stuff that could land Horford a Celtic's front office job for life when his playing days are through!

Oh you will. However, next time it will be filled with joy as it will be for another team.

So we can't make any trades that would put us over the cap for one year? I don't think that's right.

/u/LarBrd33 lays out how it would work pretty neatly over in r/bostonceltics subreddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/bostonceltics/comments/c7ai86/update_wnew_details_if_the_hornets_are_willing_to/

He takes things a step farther than I would by trading Smart, Brown, Yabu and the Memphis pick for Brad Beal.

Still, really good breakdown of how the trade would work. Really not all that complicated, and all three teams would benefit from doing it, so not understanding why it's getting **** on by some media guys.


Ya know, I liked everything I was reading until the hard cap part. Our center depth would be Theis, Williams, and Tacko Fall. I'm not comfortable with Theis as our #2 guy. Big Bob Williams would have to really step up his game if this was our final roster.

He's talking about the mle to sign a free agent. Not about trades.

Kind of negative news for the Memphis pick. Valanciunas will win them some games.

No, we can't qualify for the MLE until the next season. We are not hard-capped.

I am setting myself up to be really disappointed. On top of thy my fav poster has a problem with me.

I find it a little suspect that reports say Horford has no meetings with teams set up for today. :eyebrows:
